The project involved the relocation of Land Rig RIG 303 from the United Arab Emirates to Poland, executed as a project cargo and breakbulk movement. The scope of the shipment covered nearly 122 pieces, totaling approximately 2,000 metric tons and 6,555 cubic meters, reflecting the scale and complexity. The main contracting and coordinating party was Rohlig SUUS Logistics SA, acting on behalf of the end-client.

For origin operations in the UAE, Rohlig SUUS Logistics SA appointed Octagon Freight Services L.L.C., a member of the XLProjects Network (XLP), as the local partner responsible for export activities. The shipment was carried out just before the Ormuz Strait closure, ensuring full alignment between origin and destination operations.

  • Coordination with terminal operators and vessel representatives

Following completion of preparation works, the cargo was loaded on board M.V. Pera, which sailed from the UAE to Szczecin Port, Poland.

Destination Operations in Poland
Upon arrival at Szczecin Port, Rohlig SUUS Logistics SA took full responsibility for destination handling. The scope included:

• Supervision of vessel discharge operations
