Tranzit-DV successfully delivers heavy-lift from China to Khabarovsk

A team of experts of Tranzit-DV Group who prepared the logistics project for transportation of heavy-lift cargo - a vacuum column from Chinese river port of Zhangjiagang to the port of Khabarovsk has successfully coped with the task, the Company said.

The vacuum distillation column was manufactured in China by order of Irtek LLC for modernization of Khabarovsk refinery Oil Company Alliance. The column has 240 tons in weight, 35 m in length and 8 m in diameter.

The complexity of the operation, according to specialists, was not only in non-standard dimensions of the cargo, but also in terms of restricted navigation on the Amur River.

To deliver the vacuum column the Group chartered the MV Omsk-121 owned by Amur Shipping Company. The cargo was loaded on board the heavy-lift carrier on 9 October at the port of Zhangjiang. To handle the cargo the Group ordered special platforms to carry the column and a heavy-lift crane to unload the cargo at the river port of Khabarovsk.

The ship laden with the column passed through the Chinese Yangtze River, the Yellow and Japan Seas, via Tatar Strait, and then by the river of Amur to Khabarovsk port.

Tranzit-DV Group provides services on the market of processing and delivery of energy resources (oil products, coal and natural gas), bunkering merchant fleet and seaborne cargo shipment.
