Hose Handling Crane Load Test Successfully Completed

We successfully completed the Hose Handling Crane Load Test onboard a vessel at Khorfakkan Anchorage, demonstrating our commitment to marine safety, regulatory compliance, and operational excellence.

Scope of Work

Prior to the load test, our certified engineers performed a comprehensive inspection to verify the crane's overall condition and readiness for operation, including:

✦ Detailed visual inspection of the crane structure and components

✦ Assessment of structural integrity and mechanical condition

✦ Functional testing of operational controls and safety devices

✦ Verification of operational readiness before testing

Load Testing

The Hose Handling Crane was tested in accordance with applicable marine inspection standards using its:

• Safe Working Load (SWL): 8 Tonnes
• Load applied as per the approved load testing procedure
• Continuous monitoring throughout the testing process

The crane demonstrated stable, safe, and reliable performance under the specified test load, confirming its ability to operate within its certified working limits.

Certification

Following the successful completion of the inspection and load test, the crane was certified in accordance with the applicable marine safety and inspection requirements.

At Al Safwan Marine, we provide comprehensive marine inspection, testing, certification, and maintenance services to help vessel owners maintain compliance, enhance operational safety, and ensure the reliability of critical lifting equipment.
