The Specialized Carriers & Rigging Foundation has awarded Linda Martin of Seabrook, NH, with the 2018 Terex Continuing Education Scholarship. Martin is the corporate safety director for Bay Crane and an adjunct instructor in occupational safety. She plans to use the $3,000 scholarship to help fund a doctorate in safety sciences.

“Five months of continuous back-breaking work without any down time,” Nabors Drilling Manager David Siljeg succinctly puts it while summarizing how well the Terex RT 90 rough terrain crane performed at his work site in Abqaiq, in Saudi Arabia. The crane lifted numerous components for drilling rigs, generators, and a power distribution and control center at the oil field while enduring the challenging environmental conditions at the desert site.

At the beginning of 2017, when Polish crane rental company Corleonis was tasked with erecting a roughly 150-meter-tall cooling tower for the large-scale Bogatynia power plant in southwestern Poland on behalf of construction company Budimex, there was one question on everyone’s mind: Which crane could tackle the job most efficiently?

The quality of Terex tower cranes is clearly highly valued in Asia, as evidenced by the fact that Singapore-based tower crane rental company and Terex tower cranes distributor Crane World Asia (CWA) recently ordered 31 Terex® CTL 260-18 luffing jib tower cranes all at once, as well as 3 Terex CDK 100-16 luffing jib derrick cranes. Another batch of 9 Terex CTL 630B-32, and 1 CTL 650F-45 luffing jib tower cranes will reach South Korea later this year.
