Almajdouie Logistics, one of the leading logistics firm in the Middle East, has recently completed a massive heavy lift operation, transporting cargo measuring 20.85 x 5.43 x 10.00 metres (L x W x H) and weighing 81 tonnes from Dammam’s Second Industrial City to Ras Tanura in Saudi Arabia.

“Almajdouie Logistics always looks forward to new challenges, especially ones that allow us to showcase our expertise,” the company said in a statement.

Elaborating on the operation, the company said that there were many logistical challenges to overcome due to the height of the cargo.

“With assistance from Saudi Electricity Company (SEC), certain lines were temporarily shut down and lifted in order to accommodate the movement.

“We also used a specially designed side-by-side trailer to maintain stability while covering uneven roads on-route. As always, safety was a top priority, and our team maintained the highest standards at all times,” the company said while giving details.

Further, due to the Covid-19 situation, extra attention was given to ensure that operations staff complied with the Ministry of Health’s guidelines. A usual safety officer was also assigned during the movement for monitoring and implementation, it said.
