EXG Manage 4740 Metric Tonne Multimodal Movement
4th October 2022
Express Global Logistics, our Members in India, recently arranged the movement of galvanised transmission line towers & their parts for one of the largest infrastructure construction companies.
The total 4740 MT of transmission line towers were shipped via 6 barge trips. The total distance covered for each lot from the shipper’s works to the final site in Bangladesh was around 3110 km.
Transportation brought various challenges such as arranging 207 trailers for the movement of cargo, from the shipper’s works to the port, as the barging windows at the port of loading were short and precise.
EXG seamlessly completed export clearance, port handling, as well as loading on a barge at origin to avoid any vessel detention or port storage charges. The loading on barges was done under the supervision of EXG's well experienced team who ensured no damage was done to the cargo.
A swift discharge at Bangladesh due to timely import documentation and clearance ensured smooth port handling and delivery at the final site by EXG’s team.
The successful delivery was possible only as a result of extensive and precise transport planning. Seamless handling of bundled cargo was done to maximize the space on the barges ensuring absolute stability for sea voyages.
The thorough sequencing of cargo while loading ensured smooth and proper segregation to the destination as the deliveries were planned to more than 9 separate locations across Bangladesh.
"Our planning and preempting, alongside the overcoming of challenges before they could arise, brought the success of this movement. We are proud to have maintained committed timelines which were possible only because of our team's foresight and rigour."
