Mammoet successfully delivers power plant equipment from Kazakhstan to Uzbekistan

The Mammoet team in Kazakhstan successfully delivered heavy power equipment for a new 1.5GW combined cycle gas-turbine (CCGT) power plant in Uzbekistan, as part of the Government’s efforts to improve electricity production capacity and efficiency. Despite the challenges of transporting cargo weighing between 130 and 517 tonnes over 2,200km with multiple road restrictions, the team provided tailored logistical solutions and precision planning to ensure safe and timely delivery.

While most of the out-of-gauge (OOG) items were loaded directly onto trailers from the vessel and transported to the site, the five heaviest items, including the 517 tonne gas turbines, required a specialized solution due to load capacity restrictions on existing bridges in Uzbekistan. The Mammoet team utilized the AL600 Girder Frame, a unique piece of equipment designed to transport power equipment exceeding weights of 500 tonnes, to distribute the weight of the cargo and safely transport the heavy loads to the project site. The AL600 can handle transportation to remote locations with road restrictions, such as height, low bridges, or axle loadings, making it an ideal solution for this project.

By leveraging their engineering expertise and specialist equipment, Mammoet provided an end-to-end logistics solution that helped ensure the successful transportation of heavy items to the construction site of the power plant. The customer benefited from a safe and reliable service, which demonstrates Mammoet’s commitment to delivering tailored solutions for complex transportation projects.
