Transport & Shipment of a 93 m long and 725 ton heavy CO2 splitter
Transport & shipment of a 93 m long and 725 ton heavy CO2 splitter from Pt.Marghera, Italy to the Quatum Refinery in Houston, USA.
This Total Transport propject was all carried out by Jumbo Shipping. The pre-carriage in Italy was done by Elia Transporti on a double set of conventional Cometto platform trailers with turntables.
The shipment was executed by mv Jumbo Challenger and loaded in a special way due to the lenght of the column.
In Houston the column was loaded on a set of Goldhofer trailers with turntables placed on a barge and rolled off via a temporary jetty near the jobsite.
Good Evening Mr Krabbendam. Had the pleasure of reading your article on The Case for Traier Stability Guidelines page 45 HEAVY LIFT & PFI May/June 2009. I am very interested in the three-point suspension module and any other module stability explaination.
With kind regards,
Dennis
Dennis,
Thanks for your message. I encourage anyone in the heavy transport business to post his comments on trailer stability and how to avoid tipping over of heavy loads.
It still happens too many times and can cost lives and causes unnecessary project delays. Come and join my Seminars and learn all about 3- and 4-point suspension systems.
The first English two day Seminar is on Friday and Saturday the 3rd and 4th of July 2009 in the Netherlands
