Breakbulk carrier Westlink Logistics has transported a cargo of ammonia flow control units to the U.S. from Australia.

The consignment involved project management, operational supervision, ocean freight, and transportation by road to several U.S. sites.

We managed to reduce costs and time for this project by shipping the over-dimensional cargo on conventional container lines. This successful first delivery for our client has resulted in the awarding of further contracts for similar scopes of work, said Alex Cecchi, business and operations coordinator at Westlink.

Westlink Logistics is a member of the Project Cargo Network, or PCN, a breakbulk association that connects carriers, operators and forwarders worldwide.

Hong Kong PCN member OLA Logistics recently delivered two sets of truck cranes via Nansha Port using 40-foot flat racks.

As truck cranes are self-propelled cargo, we would usually use a ro-ro service. However, the ro-ro service only runs one vessel per month from the required port and the customer was eager to receive the cranes, said William Wan, director of OLA.
