Project Cargo
Project cargo includes freight that is voluminous, either by weight, size or quantity, or composed of complex components that must be disassembled, shipped and then re-assembled. A wide variety of sectors have project cargo needs, including oil & gas, pulp & paper, automotive, construction, power & energy and aid shipments.
With high loading capacity, high freeboard and with deck strength up to 15 ton per m², GAC barges are ideally suited for heavy project cargo, such as transformers, generators, evaporators etc. Ballastable tanks make these vessels very suitable for Ro-Ro operations.
We work closely with the heavy lift engineering companies tailoring solutions to their needs. GAC has the expertise to handle such cargo thanks to its logistics capabilities, precise timing, wide geographical knowledge, and global connections to coordinate project cargo movements from origin to destination.
Our project handling capabilities include:
- Site survey / feasibility studies
- Full / part charter parties
- Multi-modal transport
- Special equipment transport
- Freight negotiations
- Administration
