CEA Move 5,200 Tons of Factory Parts for Nissan
5th February 2014
CEA Project Logistics recently executed a project for the Nissan Motor Company which involved the transportation of factory parts which totalled 5,200 tons.
Mr Earl Brown, Business Unit Manager at CEA Projects explains; "The factory parts arrived by ship at Laem Chabang Port and were unloaded by the vessel onto the dock below. Two CEA 50 ton cranes were then used to lift the parts on to three different types of trailer Flatbed, Lowbed and Multi Axle, this was due to the cargo being oversized and varying in weight. All cargo was secured with ratchet straps and transported to the CEA yard in Laem Chabang for two weeks storage until delivery date.
Upon delivery date the same configuration of trailers made the 82km journey to the Nissan facility in Samut Prakan. As these parts were oversized cargo CEA employed the services of the local Highway Police for a full escort to ensure the safety of all road users."
