Norwegian contractor quadruples size of Doosan truck fleet

25 Nov 16 Norwegian contractor Risa has bought nine new Doosan DA30-5 articulated dump trucks (ADTs) from dealer Rosendal Maskin.

Risa, which has a staff of over 450, operates mostly in the west coast region of Norway, in the counties of Rogaland, Agder and Sunnhordaland.

The company bought its first DA30-5 ADT in 2014 and following successful tests of its performance it acquired two more DA30-5s, which were delivered during spring 2015. 

This year Risa has taken delivery of two more DA30-5 machines, which arrived at the end of June and has placed a new order for seven more units which will bring the total of DA30-5 in the company’s fleet to 12.  Risa also has a fleet of five Bobcat mini-excavators purchased from Rosendal.

Doosan said that the design of the Stage IV/Tier 4 Final compliant goes far beyond just meeting the latest emission standards and incorporates features to establish a new benchmark in performance, fuel efficiency, enhanced controllability and high operator comfort. There are also improvements to reliability and durability as well as reduced maintenance and servicing costs, it said.
