The sale was arranged through Tadano’s distributor Qatar Tractor and Equipment Company.

Satish Pillai, executive director at Galfar Al Misnad, said, “Galfar was awarded three prestigious projects from Qatar Energy. To efficiently execute these projects for them, we opted for a Tadano crane package comprising a total of seven truck cranes.”

Anwar Sadath, the plant’s deputy general manager, added, “The quality, reliability, and durability of Tadano cranes align perfectly with our operational requirements, ensuring seamless project execution and enhanced efficiency.”

Pillai continued, “With these brand-new cranes, apart from our ongoing projects, we anticipate deploying them for future endeavours, thereby bolstering our capabilities and reinforcing our commitment to excellence in project delivery.”

The cranes are already being used on various projects within the oil and gas industry.
