NTC Logistics, the one-stop solution provider for all project cargo related services, won the Multimodal operations contract for Ocean Transportation. 

 

The barging of 31 Pipe Rack Modules (400MT-650MT per module) were to be carried out from a Modular Fabrication Facility north of Chennai to a Jetty near Visakhapatnam. The entire modular fabrication was shipped to a Domestic Refinery Project near Vizag. The pipe rack Modules and Technology structures were of different sizes ranging up to 30m long, 14m wide, 20m in height and weighing up to 660MT per package, and the total volume of the cargo was 1.54lk FRT. Scheduled to happen across 13 voyages, the packages were moved along the coastlines on a dumb barge with a Pulling Tug of suitable capacity.

 

As it is the first time NTC shipped an entire modular fabrication, made in India, to a domestic refinery project, it is considered one of the landmark projects in the history of NTC Logistics.
