At 200 tons the crane is a heavy-lift machine, used in Abu Dhabi for process equipment and modules on industrial plants, heavy infrastructure components, long-reach lifts over buildings and the kind of shutdown work in Ruwais where one lift decides the programme. These jobs are engineered, not booked: the lift plan, the ground, the transport and the site documentation are settled before the crane moves.
A 200 ton crane travels with its counterweight on separate trucks and usually needs route approval as an oversized load, so lead time is set by the approval rather than the crane's availability. Sending the lift details early is the single most useful thing you can do for the schedule.
What a 200 ton crane typically lifts
- Process modules, columns and heavy vessels
- Precast bridge and infrastructure elements
- Heavy transformers and generators
- Long-reach lifts over existing buildings or plant
- Large steel assemblies lifted in one piece
Typical figures for this class
| Main boom | Around 60 to 72 m, with luffing jib options |
|---|---|
| Working radius | Up to about 60 m depending on configuration |
| Outrigger footprint | Roughly 8.5 m x 8.5 m |
| Counterweight | Several trucks; full capacity needs full counterweight |
Typical for the capacity class, not a specific unit. Boom length, radius and footprint are confirmed per job from the load chart of the crane we send.

Getting it to site
A 200 ton crane moves as an oversized load with its counterweight on separate trucks, so route approval is normally required and the move is timed around restricted hours. Our transport team plans the journey, the counterweight convoy and the lift as one job.
What affects the daily rate
- Hire length: a single lift carries the full mobilisation cost in one day; longer hires spread it.
- Where the crane can stand: a longer radius can push the job into a bigger crane.
- Ground conditions, and whether mats or pad preparation are needed.
- Transport: counterweight trucks and route approval for larger configurations.
- Site location and delivery distance, and any waiting time at a gate.
We do not publish rate cards because these factors change the price for the same crane. Send the lift details and you get a firm AED quote. Our guide on what affects rental rates explains each factor.
Included with every crane

200 Ton Crane Rental in Abu Dhabi: FAQs
How much does a 200 ton crane cost per day in Abu Dhabi?
Heavy-lift hire is quoted per job rather than from a rate card: configuration, counterweight transport, route approval, ground preparation and the lift duration all feed into it. Send the lift details and we will quote in AED.
How much lead time does a 200 ton crane need?
Enough for the route approval and the counterweight convoy, which is usually several days and longer for long routes such as Ruwais. Shutdown work should be booked as early as the programme allows.
Who prepares the lift plan?
We prepare the lift plan and method statement with you, using the load chart for the configuration, and supply the documents your site requires for the permit to work.
Can you do a tandem lift with two cranes?
Yes. Long or awkward loads that cannot be handled by one crane are planned as tandem lifts with a dedicated lift supervisor.
What site preparation is needed?
A level, firm set-up area sized for the outrigger footprint plus mats, clear access for the crane and counterweight trucks, and a laydown area for rigging. We walk the site with you before confirming.
