An Oversized Shipment Starts with Engineering Analysis

For heavy or non-standard equipment, it is important to check in advance the dimensions and weight, road restrictions, the securing scheme, loading and unloading points, as well as the need for permits and escort services.

  1. Engineering Survey

    We take measurements and verify the weight and dimensions so that this data underpins the route and transportation technology.

  2. Route and Securing

    We develop the route and the securing scheme, taking into account the equipment specifications and the specifics of the transport legs.

  3. Permits and Approvals

    We arrange special permits for oversized transportation and work with road authorities.

  4. Escorting Along the Entire Route

    Within the agreed plan, we coordinate loading, securing, movement, unloading and on-site installation.

What Cargo We Carry

We handle cargo that does not fit into a standard container or requires special machinery and engineering calculations.

Cargo categories and examples
CategoryProduct examples
Industrial EquipmentEquipment for production sites and the construction of new facilities
Heavy Indivisible CargoUnits that require modular transport, special securing and escorting
Special MachineryVehicles and machinery transported by roll-on, on lowboy trailers or using another agreed technology
Oversized Project CargoCargo that requires special permits and route engineering

Types of Transportation

We select the combination of equipment and transport legs depending on the dimensions, weight, geography and the available infrastructure.

Road Transportation

Road Transportation

Lowboy trailers, modular platforms, escort vehicles and truck cranes to carry out a project operation.

350+ units of equipment

Sea and Ro-Lo Leg

Sea and Ro-Lo Leg

Transportation of project and heavy cargo, including roll-on loading onto the vessel without crane infrastructure where the scheme is applicable.

Sedanka vessel

Geography of Transportation

Route feasibility is assessed individually: from site surveys to checking infrastructure and road restrictions.

Russia and the Arctic Regions

Management of complex deliveries to industrial, construction and remote regions as part of a project scheme.

Equipment Imports

Delivery of industrial equipment from China and other countries with an engineered multimodal route to the site.

Ports with Limited Infrastructure

Ro-Lo technology allows loading and unloading without port cranes where the operation is applicable.

Cases We Handle

These examples reflect the types of operations the project transportation department can handle.

Equipment from Tianjin to Dobrino

Transportation of industrial equipment from China to a production site as part of project logistics.

Delivery to an Arctic Region

Organization of a shipment for the Northern Sea Route with the specifics of a remote destination in mind.

Construction of a Major Facility

Logistics for a gigafactory with coordination of the project's transportation stages and equipment delivery.

Stages of Arranging Transportation

  1. Conduct a Survey

    We record measurements, the weight and dimensions of the equipment, and data on the loading and unloading sites.

  2. Develop the Route

    We plan the transport legs, passage, loading, unloading and the securing scheme.

  3. Obtain Permits

    We arrange the special permits required for oversized transportation.

  4. Prepare the Equipment

    We select lowboy trailers, modular platforms, escort vehicles, truck cranes and other resources.

  5. Arrange Loading

    We coordinate securing and prepare the cargo for safe movement.

  6. Escort the Route

    We monitor the movement, the completion of approvals and the performance of work at checkpoints.

  7. Unload and Hand Over

    We arrange unloading and on-site installation in accordance with the agreed project.

Frequently Asked Questions

With an engineering survey: the weight, dimensions, drawings or a description of the equipment, the loading and unloading points, and the target route are required. The transportation technology is developed on this basis.
