The shipment comprised 659 packages with a total weight of 7,402,989 kg and a volume of 16,117.45 CBM, requiring specialized handling and coordinated project planning throughout the operation. Given the scale of the cargo and the port's limited breakbulk export capacity, **UNITEX** developed a coordinated handling plan to support the shipment. As transporting the cargo entirely by road would have taken approximately 20 days, a dedicated yard area was secured and a direct discharge and stacking arrangement was implemented. The dimensions of the steel pipes required specialized lifting solutions. **UNITEX** customized a 15-meter lifting boom and utilized two ship cranes operating in tandem from the bow and stern. Through coordinated 24/7 operations, loading was completed in four days, ahead of the six days originally estimated. Each pipe was also fitted with two custom 10-ton lifting slings to facilitate discharge at destination. The cargo has since arrived safely at Port Moresby, highlighting** UNITEX**'s expertise in managing complex breakbulk, heavy-lift, and oversized cargo shipments through careful planning and close coordination with all project stakeholders Pls visit [**UNITEX **](https://www.unitexlogistics.com/en/)website for more information Share [Share on LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/sharing/share-offsite/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pancoworld.com%2Fmember-news%2Funitex-china-completes-shipment-of-38-meter-ultra-long-foundation-steel-pipes-to-papua-new-guinea) [Share on Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sharer/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pancoworld.com%2Fmember-news%2Funitex-china-completes-shipment-of-38-meter-ultra-long-foundation-steel-pipes-to-papua-new-guinea) [Share on X]() [Share on WhatsApp]() ## Ready to build relationships inside PANCO?
