OTR Trailers and Tight Quarter Cranes Key to Successful Project
The upper and lower sections of this vessel, weighing 85T and 102T, respectively, were transported from the port to the refinery using over-the-road Dual Lane Goldhofers. They were then lifted and set, in combination with their supporting structures, using the 660-ton Demag CC2800-1 and the 500-ton Liebherr LTM1400 7.1.

Multi-Module Mission
The heavy haul transport of oil and gas refinery components is always a challenge. Transporting 17 modules, all in the span of two weeks, raised the bar. The modules varied greatly in size and weight. Two of the modules exceeded 260,000 lbs., while 11 were more than 16’ high, three were more than 19’ high, and 13 had widths greater than 18’. Initially, the customer had trouble finding a company to move the modules to their site in Texas.
