Modalities of transportation

Land transport

The main considerations that must be taken are in relation to the condition of the load and the security measures that it requires; This will determine the speed at which you can travel and the need for escort vehicles.

Vehicles used for land transport

The most used vehicles for the transport of project loads are “Heavy Hauler” type trailers, since they can be adapted to the dimensions of the load, and have a sufficient number of axles to support heavy loads. It is also a good alternative to use road trains that connect two or more trailers, allowing a much greater load capacity.

Due to the magnitude of the projects, specialized personnel must be able to determine the most appropriate equipment, properly coordinate the use of transport routes, as well as the logistical support that allows efficient management of processes such as driver relay, fuel loading and proper route planning.

Marine transport

In maritime transport it is necessary among the staffa high level of coordination in the processes of loading and unloading the merchandise to and from the ship. To do this, you must have a cargo operator that has the ability to establish the minimum requirements based on the following aspects

  • Load size
  • Establish the most appropriate way to stow cargo (distribute the weight on the boat); taking considerations on the conditions of the load as for the distribution of its weight.
  • Establish procedures for lifting the cargo from the dock to the ship

In this method of transport, the ability of the transport operator to coordinate the necessary operations, as well as to manage administrative processes in customs, port entry permits, and processes with the different entities that will participate in the operation is of great relevance.
