What Crew Members Say About Aal-Hong-Ag

AAL has proudly accomplished the delivery of the first ten out of twenty automated stacking cranes (ASC) from Shanghai to Melbourne, destined for the Victoria International Container Terminal. Each crane, with a significant footprint of 473 square meters, was dispatched in groups of four on board the AAL Hong Kong, a vessel boasting a deadweight tonnage of 31,000. This innovative shipping feat marks the first instance where four ASC units of such sizable dimensions have been loaded and transported simultaneously on a single vessel. A dedicated team of four AAL engineers meticulously coordinated the logistics, ensuring seamless operations between China and Australia. The loading and unloading process of these massive cranes utilized all three onboard cranes of the AAL Hong Kong in a synchronized effort. The remaining ten units are slated for transportation over the forthcoming months, with specific schedules yet to be confirmed.

This week, Schoeller Holdings proudly welcomed the newest addition to their fleet, the AAL HONG KONG, a versatile multipurpose vessel boasting a deadweight tonnage of 32,000 tons. This remarkable ship, which was commissioned back in January 2008, is the eighth vessel in a successful series of identical units constructed by Shandong Huanghai Shipbuilding. The AAL HONG KONG follows the AAL MELBOURNE, now known as HYUNDAI INCHEON, which was delivered just last February. This expansion of Schoeller Holdings' maritime capabilities reinforces their commitment to the shipping industry and the efficiency of multipurpose vessels.
