TPI France selects MFC Extreme UAE to support them
TPI France selected MFC Extreme UAE to support them in the shipment from Italy to UAE site.
The partnerships successfully managed the logistics and delivery of a large industrial pressure vessel.
The unit weighed 141 tons and measured 18.93 meters in length, 4.65 meters in width, and 4.77 meters in height.
TPI arranged the part charter breakbulk vessel from Porto Maghera, Italy to Jebel Ali, UAE and MFC managed the Customs Clearance, Port Handling, and Transportation to site.
Due to the size of the unit, the vessels cranes could not unload the unit, so MFC arranged 2 x 500 T cranes for a tandem lift. At the same time 2 x sets of hydraulic trailers with 10 axles per set were in position to receive direct from discharge.
Transportation from the port was oversized, road permits were secured, and the cargo was permitted to travel only at night from 12 a.m. to 5 a.m. MFC successfully received the shipment under hook during the early morning hours and secured the permit from the port to keep the shipment in the port yard until evening for the road transportation.
At midnight, the cargo was permitted to leave the port with the escort of JAFZA authority for final delivery to the client’s site where it was promptly offloaded following close coordination to ensure no delays.
The operation required precise coordination between the rigging teams, vessel, haulier, authorities, and consignee to ensure the high-pressure vessel was handled safely from discharge to final placement. The project was completed on schedule, adhering to all technical safety protocols for oversized cargo.
