Danir19 has handled cargoes for a metallurgical plant in Vyksa, Russia.
Among the equipment, 6,000 tons (5,443.1 tonnes) of cargo was shipped across 417 containers. The shipment comprised 932 trucks of in-gauge cargo and 81 trucks of out-of-gauge (OOG) cargo.
The largest OOG items measured 7 m x 6.3 m x 3.4 m and weighed 78 tonnes each. These components were transported on eight and ten-axle open trailers.
The outbreak of war in Ukraine in 2022 led to a cascading of supply chain disruptions worldwide. The Caspian and Baltic regions have both been impacted significantly with the drive towards domestic alternative energy production being spurred on by a cutting off of Russian gas imports in the Baltics and the opening up of the Middle Corridor as a result of supply chain pressure through the Caspian.
Belgian maritime contractor Jan De Nul will play a pivotal role in developing the “Middle Corridor” by expanding existing ports and building new ones.
Mammoet has loaded out and installed a 19,600-tonne offshore platform as part of the Azeri Central East (ACE) project, the next phase of the bp-operated Azeri-Chirag-Deepwater Gunashli (ACG) field in the Caspian Sea.
