Port gantry crane lifting an oversized industrial turbine module onto a flat-rack at sunset

Engineering the move before anything leaves the factory gate.

Project cargo fails on details, not distance: a bridge with the wrong rating, a berth without the right crane, a permit that takes six weeks. We plan backwards from the installation date and the site itself — access roads, laydown area, crane pads — then build the routing, equipment and permit schedule to match. Turbines, transformers, pressure vessels, mining plant, modular skids and complete production lines move under one engineered plan with a single project manager accountable for it.

Surveyed & Planned

Route surveys with swept-path analysis, bridge and culvert load checks, overhead clearance measurement, method statements, lift plans and rigging drawings reviewed by qualified engineers before capacity is booked.

Right Equipment, Right Berth

Flat-rack, open-top, breakbulk, RoRo and heavy-lift tonnage with onboard cranes, plus lowbeds, modular trailers and SPMTs inland — chosen against real weight, centre of gravity and lifting-point data.

Special Services

  • Out-of-gauge and heavy lift

    Single pieces beyond container dimensions or standard road limits, moved with engineered lifting, sea-fastening and lashing calculations, marine-warranty surveyor attendance and load-out supervision at both ends.

  • Permits, escorts and civil works

    Oversize and overweight permits by jurisdiction, police and pilot-car escorts, utility lift and traffic management, plus temporary civil works such as road plating, ramping and hardstand where the route requires it.

  • Site delivery and multi-shipment programs

    Phased delivery sequenced to the construction schedule, marshalling yards near site, inventory control across hundreds of shipments and consolidated reporting for EPC contractors and owners.

Special Solutions

Every project starts with a feasibility study and a cost-and-risk comparison of the realistic routings, so the transport plan is agreed before procurement locks in delivery terms.

  • Feasibility studies and transport-plan documentation for tender and financing packages.
  • Charter and part-charter negotiation for breakbulk and heavy-lift tonnage.
  • Customs, temporary-import and duty-relief structuring for project equipment.
  • Project cargo insurance including delay-in-start-up exposure and marine warranty coordination.
  • Dedicated project manager, milestone reporting and on-site supervision at load-out and discharge.
