PrimoCargo & Fortune Contracted to Transport 4 Large-Bore Diesel Engines

PrimoCargo were recently contracted by a German-based, world leading manufacturer of large-bore diesel engines to execute their project cargo services.

Four diesel engines, two weighing 80tns with dimensions of 7.25 x 3.15 x 4.20m and two at 63.5tns / 7.90 x 2.60 x 4.55m, were loaded at 2 different locations by the same barge for transportation via the Rhine river to the port of loading in the Netherlands, Schiedam. Please click below for photos.

Philipp-Christopher ‘Ebbo’ Schopnie (General Manager at PrimoCargo) explains; “The challenge during this transport was the extreme low-water level on the Rhine during the pre-carriage by barge. However, by choosing the correct type of barge, we were able to deliver all 4 engines in time for the closing of the ongoing ocean vessel.”

At Schiedam, the engines were loaded at the quay by a shore crane into a coaster vessel heading to the final destination of Ancona in Italy where Fortune International Transport (PCN members in the country) will coordinate the rest of the shipment and act as agents for discharging.

Fortune in Italy Show Land Transport Expertise

Fortune International Transport are active PCN members in Italy and are pleased to share the details of the recent multimodal transport of a 60tn machine from Italy to Russia.

Paolo Federici (Managing Director) explains; “Whilst our specialty is maritime transportation with added experience in air transport (some time ago we even loaded an Antonov with an 80tn boiler), this project shows our land transport expertise.

The 60tn machine had to be transported by road with permits and escorts from Italy to Lübeck in Germany where it was transferred onto a MAFI and transported 1,500km by ferry to St. Petersburg in Russia. From there, the cargo was again moved by road to the final destination.”

In total, the cargo travelled 1,400km by road in Europe, 1,500km by sea in the Baltic and 600km from St. Petersburg to the final destination in Russia. In just over a week, the journey of 3,500km was completed successfully and safely by Fortune International Transport.

The photos in the below thumbnail gallery show the cargo on the special truck as it arrived in Lübeck and after transferring to the MAFI.
