Frequently Asked Questions

  • What’s the best type of crane for remote projects?

    For remote and rural projects, Franna cranes are often the preferred choice. These pick-and-carry cranes are compact, mobile and designed for rough or uneven terrain, making them ideal for limited-access sites like those in Borroloola. They can move loads across short distances without needing outriggers, saving setup time and increasing efficiency. Their flexibility makes them suitable for construction, mining, and transport support in regional areas.

  • What qualifications are required for rigging on mine sites?

    Anyone performing rigging work on mine sites must hold a valid high-risk work licence specific to rigging. Depending on the complexity of the task, this may include basic, intermediate or advanced rigging certifications. Riggers must also be trained in safe load handling and familiar with site-specific protocols. In mining regions like Borroloola, compliance with WHS standards is essential, so most jobs also require a Job Safety Analysis (JSA) and coordination with site supervisors or safety officers.

  • How do transport companies handle oversized loads in remote areas?

    Transporting oversized loads in remote locations like Borroloola involves detailed planning. Operators must assess road conditions, secure travel permits, and organise escort or pilot vehicles. Weather, terrain and limited access points can complicate scheduling, so every move requires precision. Loads may be broken into smaller parts or timed around specific access windows. Transport teams work closely with crane operators to ensure everything arrives safely and is ready for unloading or lifting on arrival.
