VGT Delivers Ho Chi Minh tanks

Cargo carrier Vietnam Global Transport has delivered two gas tanks from Ho Chi Minh city port to Hightech Park, Vietnam.

The tanks weighed 150 tonnes each and measured 32 meters long, 5 meters wide and high. VGT handled all import customs clearance, port handling arrangements, mobilizing specialized equipment to the port to receive both tanks directly from the heavy-lift vessel onto the barges.

“Due to the super-heavyweight and length of the cargo, it made it mandatory to lift the cargo up the communication and power cables, as well as the signboards with various obstacles during the route. The convoy could only be executed during the night,” a spokesperson for VGT said.

VGT represents the XL Projects network in Vietnam and provides breakbulk handling throughout Asia.  XLP connects heavy-transport providers worldwide and represents independent project forwarders in more than 80 countries.
