EXG Delivers Cold Boxes with Precision & Expertise
26th September 2024
Express Global Logistics (EXG) are pleased to report on the seamless transport of huge cold boxes for their client showcasing their expertise in handling complex, oversized cargo.
The main cargo involved two cold boxes with dimensions of 62.7 (L) x 6.56 (W) x 6.60 (H) meters and a weight of 232.5 metric tons each.
Additionally, EXG transported a heat exchanger, alongside other key components with a total of 18 pieces.
For the project, the company utilised:
- Hydraulic Axles: A configuration of 28 axles were employed to distribute the weight of the cargo evenly and ensure stable transportation.
- SPMTs: 24 axles were used to manoeuvre the cargo efficiently through the route’s various challenges.
The route covered a significant distance from Hazira Port to the designated site, requiring meticulous coordination and preparation.
"During this project, our team undertook essential civil work to guarantee the safe and smooth passage of these oversized packages."
EXG pre-emptively addressed road conditions by filling potholes, ensuring a smooth and damage-free transit for the heavy cargo.
To accommodate the dimensions of the cargo, they worked with local authorities to temporarily dismantle electrical wiring, camera poles, and navigation boards, safeguarding both the infrastructure and the cargo.
The team promptly reinstalled all dismantled elements after the cargo had passed, minimising disruptions to the local area.
Given the significant length of the cargo, navigating tight curves and complex turns was a challenge. To avoid any potential damage, they also carefully dismantled and rebuilt road dividers along the route.
"At EXG, we pride ourselves on delivering tailored, comprehensive solutions to meet the unique demands of every project. Our commitment to safety, precision, and efficiency ensures that even the most challenging tasks are executed flawlessly. With a dedicated team of experts and a broad range of specialized equipment, we consistently overcome obstacles and deliver results that exceed expectations."
