Precarious Conditions on the Dock
Posted:05/13/2025
Rail-traveling ship loaders are a familiar sight on the Gulf Coast (and around the world)—and they are essential to the efficient loading of bulk materials. Disruption to the operation of these massive machines directly affects productivity and the bottom line, as represented by one company's experience when wind from a severe storm knocked the machine off its rails, leaving it dangerously close to the edge of the dock.
Reconfigured for a Higher Load
Posted:11/05/2024
During a planned outage, a petrochemical facility in Texas needed to replace a large tower head—measuring 54' L x 30' W x 30' H and weighing 280,000 pounds. Deep South Crane & Rigging selected a strategic setup location for its 2,500-ton VersaCrane TC-36000 to accommodate both the head lift and additional turnaround work. The lift was initially planned at 350,000 pounds, accounting for tray installation.
