en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Port of Cartagena in Colombia has recently completed the assembly of a Liebherr LHM 600 mobile harbour crane, which is scheduled to officially enter operation within this month. This equipment is the largest Liebherr model deployed in Colombia and was introduced by the terminal operator COMPAS.

The LHM 600 has a lifting capacity of 104 tonnes and a maximum outreach of 61 metres. It is specifically designed for heavy-lift, project cargo, and container handling operations, and is capable of performing twin-lift operations. COMPAS Vice President of Operations, Moisés Sabbagh, stated: "This investment is based on a clear need: to continue growing efficiently and to meet customer requirements in advance."

In recent years, the Port of Cartagena has been continuously upgrading its port infrastructure. Search results show that the COMPAS terminal had previously undergone a large-scale expansion project, increasing its annual handling capacity to 600,000 TEUs and 900,000 metric tonnes of general cargo, and deepening the terminal's draft to 14.5 metres to accommodate Post-Panamax vessels. The addition of the new crane further expands the terminal's handling capabilities for vessels and various types of cargo.
