在乔治亚港口管理局已下达采购20台混合动力轮胎吊和8台岸边集装箱起重机到萨凡纳港。

The Georgia Ports Authority has ordered 20 eco-efficient Konecranes RTG cranes and eight STS cranes for the Port of Savannah.

GPA继续为世界上最大的集装箱船做准备而采购如此多港口设备，包括24,000 TEU HMM阿尔赫西拉斯级和马士基的Triple-E级。其中6台岸边集装箱起重机将是科尼制造的最大岸边集装箱起重机。

The GPA placed the order as it continues to prepare for the world’s largest container vessels, including the 24,000 TEU HMM Algeciras class and Maersk’s Triple-E class.Six of the STS cranes will be the largest ever made by Konecranes.

岸边集装箱起重机将分两批交付：第一批于2023年6月交付，第二批于2023年10月交付。柴油电动混合动力RTG将从2021年到2022年分四批交付，每批五批。

The STS cranes will be delivered in two batches: the first in June 2023, and the second in October 2023.The diesel-electric RTG cranes will be delivered in four batches of five from 2021 to 2022.

自1990年起，当新的科尼岸边集装箱起重机投入使用时，科尼将向萨凡纳港GPA交付45台岸边集装箱起重机。GPA还运营着庞大的科尼轮胎式起重机车队。最新的20台RTG交付使用后，GPA将运营201台科尼RTG。

When the new Konecranes STS cranes enter service, Konecranes will have delivered 45 STS cranes to the GPA, Port of Savannah, since 1990.The GPA also operates a large fleet of Konecranes RTG cranes: when the latest 20 RTGs are delivered and in service, the GPA will operate a fleet of 201 Konecranes RTGs.

GPA执行董事格里夫·林奇（Griff Lynch）表示：“ GPA一直在为全球贸易的下一个发展做准备。订购的新型高性能岸边集装箱起重机是“大船/大泊位”计划的一部分。六台新岸边集装箱起重机将非常大，使我们能够为New-Panamax集装箱船提供服务，这要归功于萨凡纳航运通道的最后一部分，这将在2021年下半年完成。”

Griff Lynch, Executive Director of the GPA, said, “The GPA is always preparing for the next evolution of global trade. The new high-performance and long-lasting STS cranes on order are part of the Big Ship/Big Berth program.Six of the new cranes will be very large, enabling us to serve the New-Panamax container ships, which will reach us thanks to the dredging of the final portion of Savannah’s shipping channel, which will be done by late 2021.”
