GPLN member Trans International Logistics Sdn Bhd recently completed the movement of the Synthetic Latex Global plant from Europe and Asia to Pasir Gudang, Malaysia, with a total project volume of about 20,000 FRT.
As indirect tax exemption consultants for the project, Trans International had successfully applied their expertise in submitting, tabulating and obtaining exemption approvals from the Malaysian authorities. They also excelled in applying and obtaining import permits and governmental certification from regulatory bodies for the importation of their special equipments and machineries.
Other than general cargoes by sea, air and road transports, the project included movements of heavy lift cargoes of three reactors at 95 tons each and three strippers at 65 tons each and other over-dimensioned cargoes. For the heavy lifts, on-carriage to site was arranged on multi-axle trailers after temporary storage on elephant legs and beams so as to be in coordination with the plant site readiness and receiving management.
All deliveries were executed well within the required time frames and with zero untoward incidents.

Europe Cargo was approached for the reception in Antwerp ex geared coaster up to barged to Fluor Terminal Frankfurt, Germany. The vessel, MV Jumbo Vision loaded in Punta Cugno, Italy and sailed from Punta Cugno port. The project consisted of 37 pieces of preassembled steel rack (858.303 mt / 14,095.695 m3), two cases of lifting equipment (2,276 mt / 6 m3) and eight pieces of lifting equipment (adjustable spreader bars / extenders: 7478 mt / 18 m3).
Europe Cargo’s supervisor reported that the cargo was loaded under deck as well as on deck. On Europe Cargo’s instructions, the crew unlashed the chains and unwelded stoppers and D-rings upon arrival at the Antwerp port.
The cargo was unloaded at the Europe Cargo terminal with specialized and necessary stevedore lifting equipment (extenders – easily adjustable) and by two Gottwald motorized mobile cranes with capacities of 100 mt (not by ship’s gear due to outreach and storage onto the shore and two cranes instead of one due to length of the cargo).
Due to the large storage area required, MV Jumbo Vision had to shift 40 m. Europe Cargo jointly surveyed unloading operations with the receiver’s appointed surveyors. Europe Cargo also arranged customs clearance in Antwerp. After unloading, necessary repairs and cleaning of the frames was arranged and took several days. When this was completed Europe Cargo ordered and arranged loading of four barges (110 m x 45 m) for the inland transport via Rhine river to the final Frankfurt site.
Europe Cargo’s profressional expertise in the project was highly appreciated by the receivers’ engineers!

The wing truck has four axle lines, obtained by combining two modular Euro Combi trailers with special adapters and extendable beams. The low floor height of the Euro Combi’s allow the three wings to be carried without exceeding the four-meter legal road height. Swing axles give it a high ground clearance when moving off-road. The steering axle displacement up to 60° provides maneuverability when having to pass tight roundabouts.

Following an earlier announcement of Peters & May Ltd.’s acquisition of U.K.-based performance yacht and motor boat logistics provider, Complete Freight Ltd., the company also revealed an exclusive agency agreement with Oceanbridge Shipping Ltd. of New Zealand. The agreement covers the marine sector of Oceanbridge Shipping’s businesses and commenced on May 25th 2009.
On making the announcement, Peters & May’s managing director Jan Rydgren-Knudsen, said: “We are very happy to announce this tie up with Oceanbridge Shipping, a company with an expanding portfolio of clients that has proven itself to be dynamic and most professional – qualities that mirror the philosophy and ideals of Peters & May.”
“We look forward to working with them and are confident that this new relationship will be a valued enhancement to the services we deliver to our clients as the service and support of Oceanbridge will be
available to our net work of 12 world-wide offices.”
Oceanbridge Shipping had previously worked closely with Peters & May’s new acquisition, Complete Freight and established a marine division that has rapidly developed to become the leading marine logistics provider in New Zealand. Furthermore the company is the largest independent NVOCC in New Zealand.
Alister Wishart, chief operations officer of Oceanbridge Shipping, commented: “The acquisition of Complete Freight by Peters & May is very much welcomed and the joining of the two companies will, I
believe, lead to significant opportunities for future development and growth.
“We are extremely excited to have signed this exclusive agency agreement with Peters & May and eagerly look forward to supporting their worldwide clients’ shipment needs. The agreement is mutually
beneficial and will both enhance and strengthen Oceanbridge’s position as the leading marine logistics provider in our region.”
Peters & May has over 30 years experience in the provision of marine logistics and offers global boat transportation and freight forwarding via air, road, rail and sea from a global network of 12 offices and
numerous exclusive agencies.
The company ships 8,000 vessels through more than 150 ports in over 60 countries and is the preferred shipper to many of the world’s leading boat builders, including Sunseeker.
The summer months are especially busy for the company — with Cowes Week and the Fastnet Race under a month away, Peters & May have been busy shipping the most modern and extreme sailing yachts into the U.K. in top condition for their owners to start preparations.

French company Sifa Projets has successfully moved an entire coating plant from the Indian Ocean island of Reunion to the European port of Antwerp. The job took 19 days, beginning on June 11 and ending on June 30.
The plant, operated by Appia, was located in Saint-Leu in the west of Réunion. Using specialized low-bed trucks, Sifa transported 32 loads from the jobsite to Réunion’s Pointe des Galets port., crossing many high bridges on the way through the island’s dramatic terrain.
The heaviest load was 71 tons in a volume of 330 cubic meters, while other major loads of 50 tons and 35 tons were also carried. Sifa chartered 4000 cubic meters on a roll-on roll-off vessel to ship the
plant from Pointe des Galets to Antwerp.

At the same time I think it would be helpful to have a blog posting on this so it will be out there for everyone to see.
There are many benefits and different companies will appreciate different benefits in ways that others might not. That’s normal because every company is different, operating in its own market with its own marketing niche. So what I would like to do is to go over what I see as the most important benefits of the being a member of GPLN. Others might give you a different idea in the end, but I do think the below three benefits are both important and substantial to project forwarders and chartering companies the world over:
1) GPLN will expand your international projects marketing focus. Because of the diverse services of the GPLN members you are able to sell not only deeper into project accounts but up and down your prospects’ project supply chains. Your company also expands its sales force through the power of networking by joint sales with your GPLN partners around the world. Throughout our membership, GPLN partners offer greatly expanded customer base potential.
2) In GPLN you will know your partner. Our regional and global meetings will allow you the face-to-face contact with your GPLN partners where you will be able to efficiently build professional relationships in the most lasting and cost effective manner. You are afforded the opportunity to meet a multitude of partner companies to discuss past, current and future business, exchange sales leads, and develop a range of business possibilities that your company could only achieve by constant expensive business trip.
3) GPLN expands your operational capabilities. You will have confidence in your GPLN partners’ abilities to satisfy your clients’ requirements. Throughout GPLN you will find available to you the combined professional project experience, local know how, and operational competence to move the world. GPLN members excel in the expertise of moving oversized, out-of-gauge and heavy lift project cargo.
If you would like to know more about the above benefits I am more than happy to discuss them with you. You can contact me through our website or you can have a look through our membership directory and find a member you might be comfortable in asking about how they benefit. You will see why we are the best known and most respected project cargo network in the business today. We are here for you!

Shipping windmill blades from the origin in Poland to Japan via Rostock port in Germany.
There are special trailers that can transport up to three wings at one time, each 45 m long. The wing truck has four axle lines, obtained by combining two modular Euro Combi trailers with special adapters and extendable beams. The low floor height of the Euro Combi’s allow the three wings to be carried without exceeding the four-meter legal road height. Swing axles give it a high ground clearance when moving off-road. The steering axle displacement up to 60° provides maneuverability when having to pass tight roundabouts.

Bellville Rodair Energy Team (BRET) is currently working on several future projects that can only be shipped using tower adapters, due to the very tight road turns that the tower sections must take in order to reach their final site.
As an alternative to drop deck and vessel deck trailers, recently some truck producers have designed tower adapters that are coupled directly to the tower sections. Thus, the truck has no need for deck at all, with the tower section acting as a connecting beam between the truck modules. The tower adapters in turn are coupled to the truck’s heavy-duty modules (for the return trip, the two tower adapters are bolted together to form a multi-axle unit).
