SSA Marine Brings in the West Coast’s Largest Cranes to its OICT Terminal in the Port of Oakland
The three largest ship-to-shore container cranes on the U.S. West Coast now reside at the Oakland International Container Terminal (OICT). SSA Marine, the operator of OICT, purchased these cranes from the world’s leading crane manufacturer, ZPMC. The cranes can work containers 24 wide while accommodating up to 14 high on deck. The new cranes will compliment four existing cranes which were recently raised, providing OICT a full arsenal of cranes capable of serving the largest container ships transiting the Pacific Ocean. These three new cranes will replace three older generation cranes as OICT will have ten cranes servicing its five-berth facility.

The new cranes will compliment four existing cranes which were recently raised, providing OICT with a total of ten cranes servicing its five-berth facility.
The investment in the new cranes comes on top of SSA Marine’s recent efforts to convert their 13 OICT Rubber Tire Gantry (RTG’s) yard cranes from strictly diesel powered to employing hybrid technology.
