The transport took place in autumn 2019. At the beginning, the Kuehne+Nagel Project Logistics team conducted various meetings with all stakeholders to address all challenging factors.
The engineering team suggested several technical optimisations. E.g., 170 lashing points were incorporated and fitted into the design of the ship loader to improve the handling. The modified design of the lashing points and the replacement of lifting lugs with lifting trunnions resulted in easier access and a reduced lifting height.
The tripper car was divided into two sections to facilitate the safe transport and the lifting. In-house chartering specialists supported the engineering team with their expertise in selecting the best heavy-lift option for the cargo and meeting the port's technical requirements.
