KNT CARGO CO., LTD
03 Transport of HRSG
from Korea to Iran
Equipments for oil refineries are
frequently transported to Iran and
generally, all these cargoes are
over-dimensional and out of gauge.
KNT Cargo’s Project Team was
tasked with handling and working
out the most efficient route for the
transport of two HRSG to Iran.
Certainly not the heaviest piece
handled but with their deadline fast
approaching, the customer needed
the shortest possible transit time
for delivery to final destination.
Always up for a challenge,
KNT Cargo’s Project Team began
planning right away.

KNT Cargo carried out the transport
of HRSG and accompanying parts
and accessories from Masan, Korea
to Bandar Abbas, Iran. The initial
part of this project began with
the transport of the cargoes from
factory to the port yard on
low-bed trailer. Our client was
involved with the pre-carriage in
close coordination with us.
The trailer and the cargoes made
the short journey to shipside for
loading and at the same time the
vessel crane was positioned for lift.
All necessary slings and shackles
were attached to the cargoes and
the lift began.
The crane lifted the cargoes over
the fence and placed them below
deck on the vessel.
The cargo was further secured using
webbing straps, each tensioned by
its own ratchet.
Using in-house resources,
KNT Cargo’s Korea office
supervised the loading and lashing
at origin and dispatched the cargo,
where upon arrival at Bandar Abbas
Iran, the consignee controlled
the offloading and subsequent
re-loading onto the trailer for
the final leg of the journey.
