A long-planned replacement of 10 shore-side cranes for TNPAs Cape Town ship repair facilities has moved into the evaluation stage, as the port authority works to restore lifting capacity and reduce delays in dry dock operations.
Speaking at the recent annual Oceans Economy Conference in Cape Town, acting port manager Ophelia Shabane said the investment formed part of an ongoing strategy to ensure critical equipment remained fit for purpose.
Our investments are targeted at ensuring that our facilities are not only available but also suitable for todays environment and capable of meeting the current demand for ship repair services, she said.
