Power generation and distribution equipment is sophisticated high value cargo with large dimensions including generators, gas turbines, combined heat, and power units. Due to the delicate nature of this cargo, it is crucial to handle its transportation with care. In order to meet these requirements, it is usually packed by manufacturers or dedicated packing companies. Once packed, we take charge of the transportation process, employing a series of meticulous measures to ensure its safe delivery.
The cargo will first be safely lashed onto our rolltrailers and then to designated lashing points on deck. These rolltrailers are specifically designed to accommodate and support the dimensions and weight of the power generation and distribution equipment.
Our Port Captains supervise the lashing of the cargo and will ensure that the manufacturer’s specific instructions as well as safety aspects are taken into consideration when securing the cargo.
By transporting cargo on our modern rolltrailers and securing it at the designated lashing points, we ensure that it is safely transported to its destination. This approach not only ensures the safety of the equipment but also minimizes the risk of any damage or potential accidents that may occur during transit. Our commitment to following manufacturer guidelines and considering safety aspects enables us to deliver the cargo to its destination in pristine condition.
In instances where the power generation and distribution equipment exceed standard dimensions, we have developed an innovative solution: the Double-wide rolltrailer concept. This concept involves the strategic positioning of two 40 feet rolltrailers positioned side-by-side, joined together by a coupling system. This unique configuration provides the necessary stability and support for exceptionally wide cargo, guaranteeing its safe transportation.
Furthermore, we have engineered our very own twin gooseneck, an essential component of the transportation process. This specialized mechanism ensures that the tugmaster maintains a firm always hold on the rolltrailer during transit. With this additional safety measure in place, we can confidently navigate any obstacles or challenges encountered along the route, further enhancing the security of the cargo.
The transportation of power generation and distribution equipment requires a comprehensive and meticulous approach. By relying on our advanced rolltrailers, adherence to manufacturer instructions, strict lashing procedures, and the implementation of our unique Double-wide rolltrailer concept and twin gooseneck, we ensure the safe and secure transportation of this valuable cargo to its intended destination.
