We’ve received an order for four Alternative Maritime Power (AMP) systems from Cypriot ship owner Synergy Marine Ltd. The units will be installed on vessels currently being built in South Korea.

Delivery is due to be completed this year. The vessels will be chartered to Taiwanese shipping line Yang Ming.

We are pleased to announce that we have secured an order for the supply of four MoorMaster® 400 automated mooring units from Denmark-based Nordic Ferry Services A/S, a recent joint-venture between Bornholmstrafikken A/S and Clipper Group.

The MoorMaster® units will be installed in the ferry terminals at Hov and Sælvig, servicing a newly built ferry on a high frequency passenger route to and from the island of Samsø. Delivery and installation of the units is scheduled for September of this year.

We are currently completing the follow-up order received from the St. Lawrence Seaways Management Corporation in Canada during the third quarter of 2007. The order is currently on schedule, with delivery and installation to take place April of this year.

We have delivered the first radio remote control system to a land-based oilrig in the Middle East. The MC-3300 unit will be used on a National Oilwell Varco rig, currently being built in the Jebel Ali Free Zone in Dubai.

The MC-3300 is a remote control terminal designed to perform several applications simultaneously. Twin battery slots allow operators to change batteries while continuing to use the system, eliminating downtime. The rugged MC-3300 has been specifically developed for the harsh conditions of on- and offshore oil and gas operations.

Cavotec will assist National Oilwell Varco to install and test the new unit during April. If the initial order proves successful, National Oilwell Varco is set to install MC-3300s on six further rigs due to be built in the UAE later this year.

The Tianjin Airbus joint venture company has ordered 12 Cavotec Fladung Pop-Up Pits to service aircraft at its A320 assembly line at the Chinese port city of Tianjin, southwest of Beijing.

The contract follows an initial order for six Pop-Up systems at Tianjin. The assembly line is a joint venture between Airbus and Tianjin Zhongtian Aviation Industry Investment Company, a consortium of the China Aviation Corporation and the Tianjin Bonded Zone Investment Company. Airbus holds a 51 percent stake in the project.

Production of the A320 is scheduled to start at Tianjin in August this year.
