The main difference is the need for detailed planning. For project cargo, a customized route is developed, infrastructure loads are calculated, special permits are obtained, specialized transport is selected, and cargo escort is organized if necessary.
When developing a route, the dimensions and weight of the cargo, the condition of the road infrastructure, the presence of bridges, tunnels, height and axle load restrictions, and regulatory requirements are taken into account. In some cases, a preliminary route survey is conducted.
Yes. If the cargo exceeds the permissible weight or dimensions, special permits are required for transportation through transit countries and the destination country. The logistics operator typically prepares this documentation.
While insurance is not mandatory, it is recommended for expensive equipment and complex logistics projects. This provides additional protection for the cargo owner throughout the entire transportation route.
Specialized equipment is used for loading and unloading operations: truck cranes, gantry cranes, hydraulic lifting systems, and other equipment. The cargo handling method is determined during the project preparation stage.
Project logistics is in demand in the energy, petrochemical, mechanical engineering, metallurgy, construction, agriculture, mining, and large infrastructure projects.
The main risks are related to the non-standard dimensions and weight of equipment, route complexity, the need to obtain permits, and adherence to delivery schedules. Careful transportation planning and project support by experienced specialists help minimize these risks.
