Open Hatch Gantry Crane (OHGC)

We have been operating open hatch gantry crane vessels since our first newbuildings, Alain LD and Robert LD, were delivered in 1969.

Five generations later, our four 6th Generation open hatch gantry crane ships – with their box-shaped holds, wide open hatches and unobstructed decks – are still setting standards for the efficient and safe carriage of unitised, bulk and project cargoes needing special care.

Our 5th Generation open hatch gantry crane fleet comprises eight sister ships. Their bale capacity is between one and two-thirds greater than the 4th Generation vessels.
