Sep 17

2 min read

Transporting oversized and high-value industrial equipment requires more than simply moving cargo from one port to another. It demands careful planning, precise coordination, and close attention to every stage of the logistics process.

For this project, Eurise K successfully coordinated the transportation of three oversized turbine units from Hamburg, Germany to Masan, with a combined gross weight exceeding 171.6 metric tons.

Cargo Profile

The shipment comprised three large turbine units, each requiring careful handling and transportation planning:

Cargo	Dimensions (L × W × H)	Gross Weight
LP Rotor	900 × 400 × 382 cm	71,800 kg
IP Turbine	565 × 330 × 338 cm	53,200 kg
HP Turbine	613 × 294 × 280 cm	46,600 kg
Total	—	171,600 kg

With the largest unit measuring 9 metres in length and 4 metres in width, and the total shipment weighing 171.6 tons, this was a substantial heavy lift and project cargo movement.

Shipment Details

POL: Hamburg, Germany
POD: Masan
Vessel: M/V ASIAN TRUST
Cargo: LP Rotor, IP Turbine & HP Turbine

Coordinating a Complex Heavy Lift Movement

The transportation of turbine equipment requires careful coordination due to its exceptional dimensions, weight, and value. Each unit must be properly planned for handling, loading, securing, and transportation to minimize operational risks throughout the journey.

For this shipment, Eurise K coordinated the logistics process with the relevant parties to ensure the three turbine units could be handled and transported safely from the port of Hamburg to their destination in Masan.
