Sep 29, 2014
Express Global Logistics PVT.LTD (formerly known as Express Transport), a member of the Worldwide Project Consortium WWPC network in India, performed another outstanding job by ship chartering, safe and timely loading, survey and Ocean Transportation for a 130 tons Cable Reel, loaded onto M.V. ABIS DUSAVIK from Newcastle Port U.K to Mina Zayed Port, Abu Dhabi.
The vessel commendably stowed a 541 CBM on lower hold/under deck. The reel weighted up to 130 tons and had a measurement of 9.40 X 6.128 X 9.40 m. It is destined for an Oil and Gas Project in Abu Dhabi.
Last December, EXG had carried 2 Reels 284 ton each with measurements of up to 9.38 X 5.91 X 9.20 m. They were destined for the 3 Well Head Platform Project in Abu Dhabi.
Like with this previous transport, the said movement was also absolutely critical and time bound. Considering the urgency of the shipment, the entire project team of EXG closely monitored the delivery arrangements of Shipper and Port handling agency to ensure the completion of loading of shipment as planned. The challenge was to arrange a suitable vessel matching cargo laycan at Newcastle.
Another problem was to berth the vessel to load the cargo during the available berth window slot, provided by the terminal. However due to excellent Loading, Stowing, Sea Fastening and Planning the cargo loading process, the operation was completed well in time (1 Hour) at the load port in the U.K.”
