Adaro

In August 2025, PT Adaro Logistics commissioned a new 1800C Series E-Crane at the B2B2 coal transfer jetty on the Barito River in Kelanis, Indonesia. Designed for barge-to-barge coal transloading, the E-Crane has already achieved hourly unloading rates of more than 1,300 tons and daily records exceeding 21,000 tons.

Applications:

Inland river terminals

Attachment:

16.5 m3 clamshell grab

Duty Cycle Capacity:

-

Lift Capacity

44.4 tons

Location:

Balikpapan – East Kalimantan, Indonesia

Crane lower:

Fixed Pedestal

Power source:

450 kW Electric Motor

Reach:

31.7 m

Model:

EH14317 PD-E

The Challenge:
Increasing Coal Transloading Capacity at a Remote River Location

PT Adaro Logistics needed an efficient solution for transferring coal from 4,000 DWT feeder barges to 15,000 DWT mother barges at its new B2B2 jetty. The remote location in Kelanis added complexity to transportation, assembly, installation, and commissioning, making efficient project execution particularly important. The new crane also needed to deliver the high throughput required for Adaro’s large-scale coal logistics operation. Installation costs and timing therefore had to be carefully managed without compromising E-Crane’s global installation and commissioning standards.

“The new crane plays a vital role in streamlining coal transloading operations, transferring material from 4,000 DWT feeder barges to 15,000 DWT mother barges, significantly boosting throughput capacity and efficiency.”

The Solution:
High-Capacity Coal Transloading Engineered for Kelanis

E-Crane, PT Multicrane Perkasa (MCP), and the local E-Crane Indonesia team worked together to deliver a solution tailored to both Adaro’s operational requirements and the challenges of the remote project location. A carefully planned preassembly strategy helped simplify final installation while supporting timely project execution.

The solution includes:

  • An 1800C Series / EH14317 PD-E E-Crane with 31.7 m reach, configured for high-capacity barge-to-barge coal transfer.

  • A 16.5 m³ clamshell grab and 44.4-ton lift capacity, supporting efficient transfer from 4,000 DWT feeder barges to 15,000 DWT mother barges.

  • A Fixed pedestal configuration powered by a 450 kW Electric Motor, providing a dedicated electric solution for the B2B2 coal transfer jetty.

  • Preassembly in Jakarta before transportation to Kelanis, reducing installation requirements and costs at the remote site, with local support from MCP and direct installation and commissioning supervision by the E-Crane Indonesia team.

BUSINESS OUTCOME

Within a short period after commissioning, the new E-Crane achieved hourly coal unloading rates of more than 1,300 tons and daily records exceeding 21,000 tons. The installation increases throughput capacity and streamlines coal transfer between feeder and mother barges, while the preassembly strategy established an efficient approach to executing a major crane project at a remote location.
