KG Logistics Delivers 40-Tonne Breakbulk Vaporiser

KG Logistics, a valued AerOceaNetwork (AON) member, recently partnered with TICC Container Line (I) Pvt Ltd to deliver a heavy industrial vaporiser from Scotland to India. The project involved inland haulage to Southampton Port and onward ocean transport to Nhava Sheva, India.

Oversized Cargo Specifications and Transport Route

The shipment consisted of an industrial vaporiser weighing 40 metric tonnes and measuring 50 M x 4 M x 4 M. Due to its size, it was handled as breakbulk cargo. The inland journey required a low-bed trailer from Scotland to Southampton, before being loaded onto a ship for sea transport to India.

Project Logistics Challenges and Execution

Moving such oversized cargo across the UK demanded detailed planning and coordination. KG Logistics and TICC Container Line’s comprehensive route planning involved:

• Arranging permits for out-of-gauge transport
• Coordinating escorts along the route
• Scheduling a low-bed trailer in line with the vessel’s schedule

Despite these challenges, the vaporiser was delivered to Southampton on schedule and loaded successfully.
