Following the success of transporting 2 OOG shipments for a railway bridge construction project in Bangladesh, Vantage was trusted by the investor and agent to deliver 3 shipments with a total volume of up to 64,500CBM belonging to the same project.

The dual-gauge, double-track Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Railway Bridge over the Jamuna River with 4.8km-long will improve rail capacity between the capital and the country’s northwestern regions, is expected to be the largest dedicated rail bridge in the country.

In the role of ship owner, Vantage Logistics has completed the cargo handling process, detailed loading diagram for three shipments to meet the project timeline as required by the customer. At the same time, because of the various sizes and shapes of steel pipes (12.5mL; 13.5mL; 14.4mL; 15.4mL; 19.5mL; 19.6mL; 20mL; 24.7mL; 25.7mL; 26.7mL; types A1, A2, B, C, D1, D2), Vantage’s team of specialized engineers had to plan the loading diagrams very meticulously and with high accuracy for the related units to coordinate accordingly, which also increased the difficulty in the project implementation process.

At the same time, because the goods are located in two different yards (1 in the yard at SITV port, the other in 3km from the port), so Vantage Logistics’ team of supervisors and engineers must coordinate intelligently, closely connected to each other to ensure the order of picking up goods at the right yard and loading on the ship as planned.
