What Was the Scope of the Project?
NYS International Freight Sdn Bhd, a proud member of the XLProjects Network (XLP), recently executed the door-to-door transport of a crawler diaphragm wall grab using RORO service. The operation included site stuffing, inland handling, and unloading at the project site in Kuching, with a stopover at Port Klang.
How Did the XLProjects Member Execute the Move?
The shipment involved 2 x 40 MAFIs, including one self-propelled unit, requiring careful planning and execution. The RORO vessel provided the safest and most efficient transport option for this type of oversized project cargo, minimizing lifting risks and ensuring smooth stowage.
The company’s logistics scope covered every stage: from stuffing at the origin site, vessel handling from Laem Chabang, Malaysia, transshipment at Port Klang, and unloading at the final delivery site in Kuching.
