US - Project - LNG Plant Equipment - Part 3 - Bird's Eye View

Hansa Meyer Global Transport’s Houston office is managing multiple origin moves as part of a US east coast LNG project.  Due to the timing of the project, there is a need for a regional storage solution with scheduled delivery to the job site.  When Hansa Meyer's Houston team keeps an eye on a project, they mean it !  Below are some offload pictures to the storage site and then an ariel view taken while circling in a private plane.  Needless to say, this project is off to a flying start !

148,810 lbs -- Very Im-press-ive

Hansa Meyer Global Transport's US team successfully completed delivery of a 350 ton servo press to its new home in Tennessee.  The part pictured below is part of the press weighing 148,810lbs. The team met the piece in Charleston, SC, secured it to the 13 axel heavy-haul trailer, and inspected the load before sending it on a 400+ mile trip.

The journey to Tennessee was eventless and the press was successfully delivered on April 3, 2014.  The customer was very pleased with the project and thanked the team for all the hard work and attention.

US - Project - LNG Plant Equipment - Part 1

In early April 2014 Hansa Meyer Global Transport’s Houston office kicked off a project handling newly fabricated equipment for an LNG construction project on the east coast of the United States.  The project will consist of 59 specific pieces weighing approximately 16,000 frt in total.  The entire project will consist of rigging and take away from multiple origins, consolidation and temporary equipment storage, barging and permitted truckload moves including several super loads, and final destination delivery and offloading. The first piece to move was a deethanizer tower as seen below.

The column was moved from the bay and positioned on stands and beams to hold in place while the second matching tower was moved into the bay for fabrication.  Once completed the columns will be moved to the barge site, loaded and begin the leg to the construction site.
