We design, execute and manage the delivery of project cargo globally and domestically. Small or large scale. At 2700 tons of HVDC units travelling over 18,262 kilometres, this heavy-lift transport was a mind-boggling distance and an equally mind-boggling heavy cargo.

 

A hard-to-grasp enormity

Beginning the journey in Sweden, the massive units travelled via rail, ship, barge, and trailer to their final destination in Oregon, USA.

The enormity and heavy weight of the cargo can be difficult to grasp. As you watch the video, pay attention to the ship's motion as the cargo is unloaded. The movement illustrates the impact of the weight of a single container very well. The total cargo was seven units.

In total, the HVDC units were underway for 65 days from the place of departure in Sweden to their final destination in Oregon, USA.
