What Is Project Cargo?
Project cargo refers to the transportation of large, heavy, high-value, or complex components that require specialized handling, equipment, routing, and coordination. These shipments often involve tight timelines, multiple stakeholders, and unique regulatory or engineering considerations.
Unlike standard freight, project cargo demands detailed planning, feasibility analysis, and active management from origin to final delivery.
Our Project Cargo Capabilities
We offer customized logistics solutions tailored to each project’s technical and commercial requirements, including:
Oversized & Heavy-Lift Cargo (OOG / Breakbulk)
OOG (Out of Gauge Cargo) = Refers to shipments that are too large, long, wide, or tall to fit in a standard shipping container, requiring special handling like flat racks or open tops.
Breakbulk = cargo that’s too large, heavy, or irregularly shaped to fit in standard shipping containers, so it’s transported as individual units (like crates, drums, or beams) and handled piece-by-piece, often requiring specialized cranes for loading/unloading onto ships, essential for oversized items like machinery, vehicles, or building materials.
RO/RO (Roll-on/Roll-off) Project Shipments
A type of cargo ship and shipping method where wheeled vehicles and rolling cargo, like cars, trucks, trailers, and even trains, are driven directly onto and off the vessel using built-in or shore-based ramps, eliminating the need for cranes and allowing for fast, efficient loading and unloading
