EXG – Seamless Movement of 168 Windmill Blades Showcases Dedication and Expertise

Express Global Logistics has achieved yet another milestone through flawlessly execution of 168 nos. windmill blades. This accomplishment is a testament to EXG’s commitment to excellence in handling complex projects, a tradition maintained since its establishment in 1946.

The project awarded by one of the world’s largest multinational renewable energy companies. EXG’s scope included transport from origin to the port, handling, cleaning, customs and further delivery under hook for the specialised 82.3-meter-long windmill blades.

The scale and intricacy of the operation demanded meticulous planning and precision in execution.

EXG’s success hinged on the operational excellence of all the activities being completed as planned. From timely vehicle placement to technical inspections, from port handling to loading on vessels to surveying to cleaning and managing double handling at port, the team coordinated and executed without any delays. The team ensured exclusive security measures at the port for the blades.

Asset Management:

EXG’s asset management played a pivotal role, ensuring the on-time supply of specialized trailers designed for windmill blade transportation. Thirty specific trailers were dedicated to intra-port movements, facilitating underhook feeding during vessel berthing. The supply of lifting equipment for unloading and reloading at Kandla port showcased the company’s comprehensive approach.

Engineering and Safety:

The engineering team at EXG demonstrated expertise in designing the correct placement of blades on vehicles and overcoming potential hurdles during the 570-kilometer transportation. A stringent adherence to safety requirements, combined with engineering solutions for smooth transportation, showcased the company’s commitment to error-free movement.

The success of the project was attributed to the seamless alignment and teamwork of EXG’s Chennai, project, and Kandla teams. The Chennai team managed project management and reporting, the project team handled execution, and the Kandla team took charge of customs clearance, port documentation, and port handling.

EXG maintained an unwavering focus on precision, evident in meticulous documentation processes and efficient customs clearance. The dedicated handling of clearance activities, even during weekends and holidays, ensured a seamless process. Timely reporting at each stage further highlighted EXG’s commitment to transparency and communication.

EXG’s successful completion of this intricate project reinforces its position as a preferred logistics partner, especially in the project cargo and renewable energy industries. The combination of a competent team, effective asset management, a qualified technical and engineering team, and an unwavering commitment to excellence sets EXG apart in the competitive logistics landscape. This achievement stands as a testament to the company’s capability to handle complex projects with precision and consistency.
