Saronic Technologies has awarded Syncrolift AS, a Nekkar ASA subsidiary, a contract valued at more than $100 million to design and supply the world’s largest shiplift for Port Alpha, its shipyard under construction in Brownsville, Texas. The tandem system will feature a 300-meter platform and 67,000-tonne lifting capacity, more than double the next-largest installation. Paired with a transfer system, it will enable parallel vessel construction and outfitting on flat land, replacing multiple graving docks. Port Alpha represents a planned investment of more than $3 billion and up to 10,000 direct jobs.
