Polaris International Projects Transport Construction Equipment
9th May 2024
The project logistics division of Polaris Shipping Agencies, our members from the United Arab Emirates, share the completion of their latest project for a prestigious local client.
Polaris was approached by their client to ship around fifty-five units of used construction equipment including Toyota vehicles, Fraste multi-drilling rigs, Komatsu excavators, and wheel loaders to Mauritania.
"Our scope included door-to-door delivery with responsibility commencing upon pick-up from the suppliers local storage yard, up to delivery in Mauritania via Port Nouakchott."
Due to the lack of regular liner breakbulk or RO/RO possibilities to West Africa, Polaris planned with container operators for a shipment on special equipment using an assortment of DVs, open tops and flat racks. A few additional heavy units, weighing over 41 tons, were shipped as breakbulk on a container vessel.
The project - which had a strict arrival deadline - was shipped within a period of two months to the satisfaction of all stakeholders.
