Express Global Logistics Pvt Ltd, (EXG) India, member to the Worldwide Project Consortium (WWPC) is a project specialist company established in 1946 with headquarters in Mumbai. EXG recently handled 8 heavy Transformer and Reactors with its accessories for a large Indian power & energy company’s Power Substation Project, from Mumbai Port to Ziguinchor site via Dakar Port in Senegal.
The shipment contained a total of 8 Heavy items with 4 units of 55 tons each and 4 units of 48 tons each, which were shipped in 2 lots from Mumbai Port. The destination site, which was 900 kilometer away from Dakar Port, was a challenging road operation due to the height of the pieces. At certain points the overhead cables were temporarily removed to provide smooth passage. This was done in conjunction with the Senegalese Road Authorities & The State Electricity department.
