RETEMS Logistics Share Volume on 2023 Projects
11th April 2023
RETEMS Logistics, our members from Azerbaijan, are pleased to share with us the total volume of breakbulk and oversized/overweight shipments which they delivered during the first quarter of 2023.
A total of eight charter vessels were shipped, with main items of cargo collected from China, Korea, India, Italy and Turkiye. The heaviest item amongst these weighed 210 tonnes and more than six units featured diameters over 6 meters.
The total volume of all the projects measured 30,000 CBM.
During these projects, RETEMS Logistics covered services such as:
- Coordination with port & vessel operations
- Route surveys & method statements
- Export/import customs clearance
- Obtaining special permissions
- Full/part chartering
- Port documentation
- Breakbulk, RO/RO
- Civil works
They also encountered some difficulties:
The delivery of goods through the Volga-Don Canal proved challenging during the current period of hostilities between the Russian Federation and Ukraine in the Black Sea.
Furthermore, the movement of cargo ships through the Kerch Strait was and remains temporarily closed. However, within a month, RETEMS Logistics were able to obtain permission to pass under the Crimean Bridge with their cargo, allowing all the equipment to be delivered to the final destination.
"We believe that such projects raise the level of professionalism for RETEMS Logistics, and we thank all our partners who offered great support."
