Cross-Border Heavy Project Cargo Transport in Southeast Asia

The client was tasked with constructing a major power generation facility in Southeast Asia, requiring the transport of eight oversized gas turbine power plant modules from manufacturing facilities in Thailand to remote coastal project sites in Vietnam and Indonesia. Weighing up to 180 metric tons each, the cargo exceeded standard road load capacities and required navigating restrictive shallow riverways during seasonal monsoon fluctuations.

LOGISTEED’s specialized project cargo team delivered a turnkey multimodal logistics solution. Utilizing shallow-draft heavy barges equipped with active ballasting systems, multi-axle Self-Propelled Modular Transporters (SPMTs), and temporary modular bridge reinforcements, LOGISTEED safely maneuvered the super-heavy components from port to foundation pad.

Summary of How LOGISTEED Helped:

• Ahead-of-Schedule Delivery: Completed the complex 1,200-metric-ton heavy-lift move 14 days ahead of the master construction schedule.
• Zero Safety Incidents: Executed all river barging and heavy rigging with zero Lost Time Injuries (LTI).
• Customs & Route Engineering: Secured cross-border green-channel customs clearances and reinforced civil infrastructure along transport corridors.
