How Did the Project Begin?
Go Gauge Projects, a member of the XLProjects Network (XLP), successfully executed the door-to-door movement of an XDR 250 Workover Rig and associated oilfield equipment from Ras Al Khaimah, UAE, to India.
The operation demonstrated the company’s engineering expertise in project logistics and its ability to manage complex oil and gas cargo across international borders.
What Did the Shipment Involve?
The shipment included a self-propelled workover rig, catwalks, dismantled booms, pipe magazines, and ladders. Measuring up to 18 meters long and 5 meters wide, the cargo required precision lashing, wooden dunnage, and specialized rigging during dismantling.
Loaded on multiple MAFI trailers, the equipment was shipped via RORO vessel under strict safety and handling standards. Every stage, from dismantling to ocean freight and inland transfer, was coordinated to ensure seamless door-to-door delivery.

Go Gauge Projects provided full end-to-end management, including cargo survey, dismantling supervision, MAFI handling, ocean freight, port coordination, temporary import clearance, and door-to-door delivery in India.
The team’s detailed planning and close coordination with port and customs authorities ensured the project’s safe, compliant, and timely completion.
