Project details: shipment of a column of 69 x 7,5 x 7,5 m and 365 tons as gross weight from Romania to Egypt

Cargo has been collected in Bucarest area and moved by road up to the river port of Oltenia, in Romania. Once at the river port it has been loaded onto river barge in order to reach the port of Constanza where ship to ship operation has been performed to accommodate the items onto ocean vessel. Cargo reached the port of El Dekheila, in Egypt and it has been discharged onto truck for finale delivery.
