- Round‑the‑clock operations to hit critical project windows
What We Handle
From refinery components and industrial modules to renewable‑energy devices and oversized machinery, our team plans, lifts, and turns your cargo efficiently at the quayside with safe storage and laydown to suit project timelines.
Typical heavy‑lift/project cargo:
- Heat exchangers, pressure vessels, and skids
- Fabricated structures and Oil &Gas/renewables components
- Out‑of‑gauge machinery and equipment
If your cargo is likely to prohibit ANY land based transport then we have the space - both internal and external - to accommodate onsite build before onwards sea transportation.
Tell us about your cargo (dimensions, weight, COG, lifting points) and schedule. Our team will propose a lift plan, cranage, and berth window.
Yes. If land transport is impractical, we offer internal/external space for on‑site build prior to onward sea transport.
Gate 1 is the primary hub for heavy, bulk and breakbulk cargo, with Quay 1 at 180m (max vessel length 164m, control depth up to 7.0m, subject to survey). We’ll advise the optimal berth based on vessel, draft and cargo profile.
