First Gulf Sky Expands Fleet with Liebherr LTM 1120-4.1 Mobile Cranes

First Gulf Sky adds three Liebherr LTM 1120-4.1 units to enhance flexibility and performance in industrial lifting applications.  www.liebherr.comAt the handover in Ehingen (v.l.n.r.): Marius Kleck and Thamer Al Harbi (both Liebherr), Ali Saleh Al Faidmah and Mahmoud Fouad Beshir (both First Gulf Sky) First Gulf Sky has strengthened its lifting capabilities with the addition of three Liebherr LTM 1120-4.1 mobile cranes, targeting greater flexibility and efficiency in demanding industrial projects. Fleet strategy: Bridging a critical capacity gap The new 120-tonne cranes fill a strategic gap between the company’s existing 100- and 160-tonne crane classes. This enables First Gulf Sky to cover a broader range of applications with improved operational efficiency. The cranes are designed to support diverse lifting tasks, particularly in: Industrial plants Steelworks Infrastructure and maintenance projects Applications: Supporting complex industrial operations The LTM 1120-4.1 cranes will be deployed for: Steel structure assembly Maintenance and repair operations Component replacement and plant upgrades These applications often involve time-critical and technically demanding lifts, requiring high precision and reliability. Performance: Compact yet powerful As one of the most powerful 4-axle cranes in its class, the LTM 1120-4.1 offers: Long telescopic boom for high reach Strong lifting capacity, even at steep angles Compact dimensions for easier transport and site access This combination allows it to handle tasks that might otherwise require larger 5-axle cranes, reducing logistics complexity and transport costs. Future plans: Expanding with next-generation models Building on the performance of the current units, First Gulf Sky plans to acquire five additional cranes from the successor model, the Liebherr LTM 1120-4.2. Company profile: Strength in industrial lifting Founded in 1992, First Gulf Sky is a leading provider of crane rental and heavy-lifting services in Saudi Arabia, particularly within major industrial zones such as Aramco and SABIC. The company operates a fleet of around 20 mobile cranes and employs over 150 personnel, supporting large-scale industrial and infrastructure projects. Conclusion: Enhancing operational versatility With the addition of the LTM 1120-4.1 cranes, First Gulf Sky is improving its ability to deliver flexible, high-performance lifting solutions. The investment reflects a broader strategy to optimise fleet capabilities while meeting the evolving demands of complex industrial environments.
