XLProjects member Project Cargo & Yacht Transport, the Istanbul, Turkey, based XLProjects member company, just concluded its logistics project of transporting Wind Turbine Generators (WTGs) from Spain to Pakistan. It had acquired the contract on a door-to-door basis, which included road transportation in Spain, transport by sea from ports in Spain to the Qasim Port in Karachi, Pakistan, and inland transport in Pakistan, apart from security and escort services throughout.
The project started in February of 2012 and came to an end in November 2012. It was by no means an easy task, especially its last leg in Pakistan, the country which had little previous experience and know how in such logistics projects, without mentioning the worsening security situation and dangerous roads.
The total size of the project can be gauged from the fact that it included 370 oversized pieces, weighing 7576 ton with a total cbm of 70,574.
Each wind turbine blade was 45 meters long. Each tower of a WTG consisted of three sections, top, middle and bottom. The length of each top section was 30 meters, middle section 30 meters, bottom section 18 meters, each weighing 33 ton, 50 ton and 45 ton respectively. Each nacelle of WTG weighed 72 tons.
The total distance covered between manufacturing facilities and erection site was 14,256 km.
As a matter of policy, Project Cargo & Yacht Transport had established a separate desk for project coordination and had deputed teams of experienced employees at each end of the project including at the origin in Spain and the destination in Pakistan. Each of the hundreds of pieces was handled and moved under the supervision of the personnel of Project Cargo & Yacht Transport.
Aware of the fact of the lack of technical expertise and specialized transport equipment in Pakistan, Project Cargo & Yacht Transport started working on the project months before the transport actually started and arranged training sessions and simulations for its own employees in order to equip them with specialized knowledge needed for moving WTGs.
After Project Cargo & Yacht Transport was satisfied with the training of its employees it sent a team of experts to Pakistan in order to train its local sub-contractors where they also conducted intensive training sessions in Pakistan.
As the transport of WTGs is a new phenomenon in Pakistan, Project Cargo & Yacht Transport paid the utmost attention to make sure that all equipment was in place before the arrival of vessel at port in Pakistan. At this stage it realized the inadequacy of trailers that were long enough on which blades could be transported. Therefore, in collaboration with its local partners, new and innovative long trailers were designed and built with enough length to be able to transport blades safely. Special techniques were used whereby the rare wheels could also be turned at places required.
Moreover, because of the lack of specialized webbing slings for lifting tower sections and other safety material, the same were imported from Europe.
It is heartening to note that the project was concluded ahead of schedule, despite the frequent labor strikes in Pakistan, road closures by ethnic groups in the province of Sindh, and the overall scarcity of transport and handling equipment in the country. Such gaps were closed by resorting to sometimes working longer hours and multiple shifts, including working at night. Another factor which the company management looked into prior to the start of the project was the security at port. In addition to the existing port security, additional security personnel were deputed. The additional security personnel worked in shifts, day and night, in order to make sure that the precious components were kept intact.
Apart from the main WTGs, Project Cargo & Yacht Transport also transported – again on door to door basis – other auxiliaries necessary for WTG erection and employees accommodation. These included heavylift cranes, cement batching plants along with the required trucks and camping containers for project site. The cranes were transported from Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, and Turkey, while the batching plant and camping containers were transported from Turkey.
The management at Project Cargo & Yacht Transport is upbeat about and gives special emphasis on the unique achievement by completing the said project in that it emerged as a pioneer in this sector by having accomplished the project in a very difficult part of the world.
The project offers new possibilities of business to the company as an entity which has shown that it can accomplish one of the most difficult logistics projects in the most difficult parts of the world. And that too, with zero damage to the components!
The management of Project Cargo & Yacht Transport would like to extend its thanks and congratulations to all its partners and sub-contractors in Spain and Pakistan for their support in the impressive implementation of the project.

The project offers new possibilities of business to the company as an entity which has shown that it can accomplish one of the most difficult logistics projects in the most difficult parts of the world. And that too, with zero damage to the components!
The management of Project Cargo & Yacht Transport would like to extend its thanks and congratulations to all its partners and sub-contractors in Spain and Pakistan for their support in the impressive implementation of the project.

XLProjects member Project Cargo & Yacht Transport, the Istanbul, Turkey, based XLProjects member company, just concluded its logistics project of transporting Wind Turbine Generators (WTGs) from Spain to Pakistan. It had acquired the contract on a door-to-door basis, which included road transportation in Spain, transport by sea from ports in Spain to the Qasim Port in Karachi, Pakistan, and inland transport in Pakistan, apart from security and escort services throughout.
The project started in February of 2012 and came to an end in November 2012. It was by no means an easy task, especially its last leg in Pakistan, the country which had little previous experience and know how in such logistics projects, without mentioning the worsening security situation and dangerous roads.
The total size of the project can be gauged from the fact that it included 370 oversized pieces, weighing 7576 ton with a total cbm of 70,574.
Each wind turbine blade was 45 meters long. Each tower of a WTG consisted of three sections, top, middle and bottom. The length of each top section was 30 meters, middle section 30 meters, bottom section 18 meters, each weighing 33 ton, 50 ton and 45 ton respectively. Each nacelle of WTG weighed 72 tons.
The total distance covered between manufacturing facilities and erection site was 14,256 km.
As a matter of policy, Project Cargo & Yacht Transport had established a separate desk for project coordination and had deputed teams of experienced employees at each end of the project including at the origin in Spain and the destination in Pakistan. Each of the hundreds of pieces was handled and moved under the supervision of the personnel of Project Cargo & Yacht Transport.
Aware of the fact of the lack of technical expertise and specialized transport equipment in Pakistan, Project Cargo & Yacht Transport started working on the project months before the transport actually started and arranged training sessions and simulations for its own employees in order to equip them with specialized knowledge needed for moving WTGs.
After Project Cargo & Yacht Transport was satisfied with the training of its employees it sent a team of experts to Pakistan in order to train its local sub-contractors where they also conducted intensive training sessions in Pakistan.
As the transport of WTGs is a new phenomenon in Pakistan, Project Cargo & Yacht Transport paid the utmost attention to make sure that all equipment was in place before the arrival of vessel at port in Pakistan. At this stage it realized the inadequacy of trailers that were long enough on which blades could be transported. Therefore, in collaboration with its local partners, new and innovative long trailers were designed and built with enough length to be able to transport blades safely. Special techniques were used whereby the rare wheels could also be turned at places required.
Moreover, because of the lack of specialized webbing slings for lifting tower sections and other safety material, the same were imported from Europe.
It is heartening to note that the project was concluded ahead of schedule, despite the frequent labor strikes in Pakistan, road closures by ethnic groups in the province of Sindh, and the overall scarcity of transport and handling equipment in the country. Such gaps were closed by resorting to sometimes working longer hours and multiple shifts, including working at night. Another factor which the company management looked into prior to the start of the project was the security at port. In addition to the existing port security, additional security personnel were deputed. The additional security personnel worked in shifts, day and night, in order to make sure that the precious components were kept intact.
Apart from the main WTGs, Project Cargo & Yacht Transport also transported – again on door to door basis – other auxiliaries necessary for WTG erection and employees accommodation. These included heavylift cranes, cement batching plants along with the required trucks and camping containers for project site. The cranes were transported from Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, and Turkey, while the batching plant and camping containers were transported from Turkey.

We all have stories about shipments that feel like nightmares at the moment, but then again, if we didn’t have those what stories would we tell to each other and be proud of the job well done? Mr. Ashok Kumar Chawdhary , branch manager for Fairmacs Multiline in Singapore, tells this is his story.
Fairmacs Multiline is a Singapore based XLProjects group member specializing in OOG and Heavy Haul shipments. Their head office is located in Chennai, India.
When they secured the movement of several trommel screens they had no idea where this adventure will lead them. Their original involvement was a fairly simple move, ship the screens from the Indian manufacturer via Kolkata port to Jurong Port in Singapore then turn it over to a warehouse for further transportation to Lazaro Cardenas, Mexico. At 8m x 5.86m x 5.86m weighing at 26 tons, this is not a necessarily small piece. And Fairmacs Multiline had four of these to move.
After wrestling through the muddy roads in India and a jaunt across the Indian ocean they got the shipment to Jurong Port using a breakbulk carrier. And that is when the fun started…
The original forwarder had backed away from the move due to under quoting the rates so the shipper asked Fairmacs Multiline if they could handle it all the way to Lazaro Cardenas. Of course there is no direct scheduled sailing between the ports, only inducement available. As the rate for that option was over the roof excessive they decided to look for another route. Maersk could take it from the PSA terminal, which was across the island from Jurong Porg, but over the road transfer was out of question in Singapore due to the height of the screens. And besides, that would have made the move way too easy…
The only alternative Fairmacs Multiline had was to move the whole lot to Port Klang, Malaysia, via another breakbulk vessel then transload it to 40’ flat racks and ship the consignment with Maersk to Mexico. This option was the long way to go but the cost was only 25% of the inducement quotation. Thin non-traditional option saved Fairmax Multiline a boatload of money (no pun intended!). After loading the flat racks in Port Klang one of the trommels was lost due to a computer error. The loading operations in Malaysia had assigned wrong number and location to the cargo. Searching all over for the missing flat rack at 0300 hrs was not really what they were looking for, and on the top of that the customs clearance was not completed either. If the shipment missed the 0800 hrs scheduled sailing the next departure was 22 days and USD 1400 per day trailer storage and demurrage away!
Without the collective effort of the Maersk captain and the director of the port this loading would have not happened in time so this is a great example what can be done if there is a will. The sailing was delayed until all documentation cleared and it finally left Port Klang at 11am.
XLProject member CEA Projects and Logistics Thailand recently carried out the FOBs for an oil refinery destined for Iraq. The consignment was only 836 tons / 6,269 m3 but did consist of some fairly oversized cargoes. The largest of which were 8 units at 14.3m x 6.5m diameter weighing 65 tons each and another 8 units at 6.8 m x 3 m x 5.2 m weighing in at 25 tons each. The larger units had to be top and tail lifted to be moved from their vertical position to a horizontal using 2 x 200 ton cranes. The larger units were moved on hydraulics and the smaller on low-beds in a convoy of two super oversized and two oversized in compliance with Thai convoy regulations. While the factory located on the Eastern Seaboard in Thailand is only about 12 kms from Mataphut Port by the most direct route, the cargo’s dimensions meant a much longer route needed to be taken. The four trips were carried out over two days while close coordination with the police, electrical, telephone, highway and other related authorities and departments had to be made to cut power, lift telephone and power lines, remove overhead signs, stop lights and other obstructions. All four trips went off without any problems and the coordination amongst everyone was seamless. Another great example of CEA’s capabilities for heavy lift and transportation in the Kingdom of Thailand.

Their original involvement was a fairly simple move, ship the screens from the Indian manufacturer via Kolkata port to Jurong Port in Singapore then turn it over to a warehouse for further transportation to Lazaro Cardenas, Mexico. At 8m x 5.86m x 5.86m weighing at 26 tons, this is not a necessarily small piece. And Fairmacs Multiline had four of these to move.
After wrestling through the muddy roads in India and a jaunt across the Indian ocean they got the shipment to Jurong Port using a breakbulk carrier. And that is when the fun started…
The original forwarder had backed away from the move due to under quoting the rates so the shipper asked Fairmacs Multiline if they could handle it all the way to Lazaro Cardenas. Of course there is no direct scheduled sailing between the ports, only inducement available. As the rate for that option was over the roof excessive they decided to look for another route. Maersk could take it from the PSA terminal, which was across the island from Jurong Porg, but over the road transfer was out of question in Singapore due to the height of the screens. And besides, that would have made the move way too easy…
The only alternative Fairmacs Multiline had was to move the whole lot to Port Klang, Malaysia, via another breakbulk vessel then transload it to 40’ flat racks and ship the consignment with Maersk to Mexico. This option was the long way to go but the cost was only 25% of the inducement quotation. Thin non-traditional option saved Fairmax Multiline a boatload of money (no pun intended!). After loading the flat racks in Port Klang one of the trommels was lost due to a computer error. The loading operations in Malaysia had assigned wrong number and location to the cargo. Searching all over for the missing flat rack at 0300 hrs was not really what they were looking for, and on the top of that the customs clearance was not completed either. If the shipment missed the 0800 hrs scheduled sailing the next departure was 22 days and USD 1400 per day trailer storage and demurrage away!
Without the collective effort of the Maersk captain and the director of the port this loading would have not happened in time so this is a great example what can be done if there is a will. The sailing was delayed until all documentation cleared and it finally left Port Klang at 11am.
We all have stories about shipments that feel like nightmares at the moment, but then again, if we didn’t have those what stories would we tell to each other and be proud of the job well done? Mr. Ashok Kumar Chawdhary , branch manager for Fairmacs Multiline in Singapore, tells this is his story.

XLProjects member Project Cargo & Yacht Transport, the Istanbul, Turkey, based XLProjects member company, just concluded its logistics project of transporting Wind Turbine Generators (WTGs) from Spain to Pakistan. It had acquired the contract on a door-to-door basis, which included road transportation in Spain, transport by sea from ports in Spain to the Qasim Port in Karachi, Pakistan, and inland transport in Pakistan, apart from security and escort services throughout.
The project started in February of 2012 and came to an end in November 2012. It was by no means an easy task, especially its last leg in Pakistan, the country which had little previous experience and know how in such logistics projects, without mentioning the worsening security situation and dangerous roads.
The total size of the project can be gauged from the fact that it included 370 oversized pieces, weighing 7576 ton with a total cbm of 70,574.
Each wind turbine blade was 45 meters long. Each tower of a WTG consisted of three sections, top, middle and bottom. The length of each top section was 30 meters, middle section 30 meters, bottom section 18 meters, each weighing 33 ton, 50 ton and 45 ton respectively. Each nacelle of WTG weighed 72 tons.
The total distance covered between manufacturing facilities and erection site was 14,256 km.
As a matter of policy, Project Cargo & Yacht Transport had established a separate desk for project coordination and had deputed teams of experienced employees at each end of the project including at the origin in Spain and the destination in Pakistan. Each of the hundreds of pieces was handled and moved under the supervision of the personnel of Project Cargo & Yacht Transport.
Aware of the fact of the lack of technical expertise and specialized transport equipment in Pakistan, Project Cargo & Yacht Transport started working on the project months before the transport actually started and arranged training sessions and simulations for its own employees in order to equip them with specialized knowledge needed for moving WTGs.
After Project Cargo & Yacht Transport was satisfied with the training of its employees it sent a team of experts to Pakistan in order to train its local sub-contractors where they also conducted intensive training sessions in Pakistan.
As the transport of WTGs is a new phenomenon in Pakistan, Project Cargo & Yacht Transport paid the utmost attention to make sure that all equipment was in place before the arrival of vessel at port in Pakistan. At this stage it realized the inadequacy of trailers that were long enough on which blades could be transported. Therefore, in collaboration with its local partners, new and innovative long trailers were designed and built with enough length to be able to transport blades safely. Special techniques were used whereby the rare wheels could also be turned at places required.
Moreover, because of the lack of specialized webbing slings for lifting tower sections and other safety material, the same were imported from Europe.
It is heartening to note that the project was concluded ahead of schedule, despite the frequent labor strikes in Pakistan, road closures by ethnic groups in the province of Sindh, and the overall scarcity of transport and handling equipment in the country. Such gaps were closed by resorting to sometimes working longer hours and multiple shifts, including working at night. Another factor which the company management looked into prior to the start of the project was the security at port. In addition to the existing port security, additional security personnel were deputed. The additional security personnel worked in shifts, day and night, in order to make sure that the precious components were kept intact.
Apart from the main WTGs, Project Cargo & Yacht Transport also transported – again on door to door basis – other auxiliaries necessary for WTG erection and employees accommodation. These included heavylift cranes, cement batching plants along with the required trucks and camping containers for project site. The cranes were transported from Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, and Turkey, while the batching plant and camping containers were transported from Turkey.
The management at Project Cargo & Yacht Transport is upbeat about and gives special emphasis on the unique achievement by completing the said project in that it emerged as a pioneer in this sector by having accomplished the project in a very difficult part of the world.
The project offers new possibilities of business to the company as an entity which has shown that it can accomplish one of the most difficult logistics projects in the most difficult parts of the world. And that too, with zero damage to the components!
The management of Project Cargo & Yacht Transport would like to extend its thanks and congratulations to all its partners and sub-contractors in Spain and Pakistan for their support in the impressive implementation of the project.

Red Wolf Global moves High Pressure Separator to Rayong
See: redwolfglobal.com/red-wolf-global-moves-high-pressure-sep...
Contact: Projects.Thailand@RedWolfGlobal.com
Red Wolf Global transported an High Pressure Separator from Thailand's main port, Laem Chabang, in Chonburi to the eastern Thailand province of Rayong.
The shipment traveled from Hamburg, Germany’s largest port, which took approximately 30 days to reach Thailand.
The HP Separator a 67 tons is a separation device that is used in the cement industry for grinding systems equipped with tube mills, roller mills and high pressure grinding rolls.
Once the HP Separator arrived at the Laem Chabang port, two 120 mt cranes were used to lift off the 67 tons HP separator and positioning on the low bed six axle truck trailer.
Due to the weight of the cargo, police permission for required for the road transport. The Red Wolf Global team this permission as well as a police escort for the 75 km trip from Laem Chabang port to Rayong province. The Red Wolf Global Thailand team had located a special truck trailer due to the cargo weight.
Once the HP Separator arrived at the destination, our team used two 120 mt cranes to lift off the HP Separator and position it to its new home at the TPI Polene company in Rayong province.

XLProject member CEA Projects and Logistics Thailand recently carried out the FOBs for an oil refinery destined for Iraq. The consignment was only 836 tons / 6,269 m3 but did consist of some fairly oversized cargoes. The largest of which were 8 units at 14.3m x 6.5m diameter weighing 65 tons each and another 8 units at 6.8 m x 3 m x 5.2 m weighing in at 25 tons each. The larger units had to be top and tail lifted to be moved from their vertical position to a horizontal using 2 x 200 ton cranes. The larger units were moved on hydraulics and the smaller on low-beds in a convoy of two super oversized and two oversized in compliance with Thai convoy regulations. While the factory located on the Eastern Seaboard in Thailand is only about 12 kms from Mataphut Port by the most direct route, the cargo’s dimensions meant a much longer route needed to be taken. The four trips were carried out over two days while close coordination with the police, electrical, telephone, highway and other related authorities and departments had to be made to cut power, lift telephone and power lines, remove overhead signs, stop lights and other obstructions. All four trips went off without any problems and the coordination amongst everyone was seamless. Another great example of CEA’s capabilities for heavy lift and transportation in the Kingdom of Thailand.

XLProjects and Project Cargo Nexus successfully completed a joint meeting in Cape Town, South Africa, in November, 2013. The meeting was held in the Hilton Cape Town City Centre over a three day period. We had a very industrious time with the one-on-one meetings over a day-and-a-half. We kicked the event off with a welcome reception on the pool deck of the Hilton and on the first morning we got the meeting started with presentations given by Safmarine MPV, Antwerp Breakbulk Agencies, Sarens South Africa and Advanced International Networks. We also took time to enjoy a lovely dinner at the Simonsig wine estate in Stellenbosch which was greatly enjoyed by one and all.

Red Wolf Global transported an High Pressure Separator from Thailand's main port, Laem Chabang, in Chonburi to the eastern Thailand province of Rayong.
The shipment traveled from Hamburg, Germany’s largest port, which took approximately 30 days to reach Thailand.

Once the HP Separator arrived at the Laem Chabang port, two 120 mt cranes were used to lift off the 67 tons HP separator and positioning on the low bed six axle truck trailer.
Due to the weight of the cargo, police permission for required for the road transport. The Red Wolf Global team this permission as well as a police escort for the 75 km trip from Laem Chabang port to Rayong province. The Red Wolf Global Thailand team had located a special truck trailer due to the cargo weight.
