April 23 - Mexico's Tradelossa won the Specialized Carriers & Rigging Association's prestigious "Moving Job of the Year", for its role in the transportation of a C2 splitter column for the Etileno XXI project in Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz.
The 880-tonne reactor, which measured 102 m long and 9.75 m in diameter, was moved 12 km (7.5 miles), with Tradelossa having to negotiate six major obstacles along the way. The transportation of the piece took 18 days to complete, in which a number of changes were made to the vehicle configuration.
