Oversized Paper Drying Tanks from UK to Bangladesh

About This Project

AGF Shipping Ltd were requested to move 4 Paper Dryer Machines from the UK to Bangladesh. This was part of a factory refit for a well known paper mill in Bangladesh.

The gross weight of the pieces, at only 38 tonnes, was not an issue. It was the dimensions of 6.00m WIDE that was the issue. The sheer size of these 4 tanks made the domestic transport to the vessel interesting. Obviously these could not move far by road and so had to be barged from the nearest UK port to the mother vessel in Antwerp for loading. Here we loaded these massive tanks onto 40′ Flat Racks directly on the vessel for shipment to Bangladesh.

When it comes to Heavy Lift and OOG shipments, we have the level of experience and skill that shows.
