Konecranes to supply two heavy-duty double girder cranes for Westcon Helgeland's new facility in Norway

Konecranes has received an order from Westcon Helgeland AS, a Norwegian provider of ship repair, rig maintenance and equipment fabrication for the oil industry, for two double girder overhead cranes at its new production facility in Nesna, Norway. The order was booked in Q1 2026, with deliveries scheduled for October 2026.

The cranes will support the handling of heavy components for oil industry equipment manufacturing. The order includes two Konecranes CXTD double girder cranes, each equipped with a main hoist capacity of 2 x 80 tonnes, and an auxiliary hoist of 10 tonnes operating on a span of 37.5 meters with a hook height of 17.4 meters.

"We have worked with Konecranes on previous crane deliveries, and their understanding of our operational requirements has been important for this project. For our new facility, we needed a solution capable of handling heavy and complex components efficiently, and Konecranes was able to meet these requirements," says Arnt Skogsøy, CEO, Westcon Helgeland.

"Having previously supplied similar cranes to Westcon Helgeland, we're pleased to see the customer place their trust in Konecranes again as it reflects our ability to deliver reliable solutions for demanding lifting applications," says Asle Johansen, CTO Sales, Industrial Equipment, Konecranes.

A strong focus on customers, commitment to business growth, and continuous improvement make Konecranes a material handling industry leader. This is underpinned by investments in digitalization and technology, as well as efforts to make material flows more efficient with solutions that support the decarbonization of the economy and advance circularity and safety.
