The package was loaded based on an onboard loading operation wherein the cargo was lifted separately by port gantry with the help of a UC hook. The cargo was placed athwartships on a bed of pre-placed 5×40’FR containers stowed under-deck on-board M.V. Safeen Power.

The story behind the project:
Onne is a major seaport in Nigeria and serves as a crucial hub for maritime trade and container handling.
When containers arrive at the port of Onne, they need to be efficiently transported to various locations, such as cities, warehouses, or industries, depending on the consignee’s requirements.
This process involves multiple stages:
Unloading and Stacking: Upon arrival, containers are unloaded from the ships using cranes or other specialized equipment. They are then stacked in designated areas within the port, often in container yards.
Customs Clearance: Before containers can be delivered, they must go through customs clearance. This involves verifying the contents, assessing applicable taxes or duties, and ensuring compliance with import/export regulations.
Transportation: Once cleared by customs, containers are loaded onto trucks or other suitable vehicles for transportation. The choice of transportation mode depends on various factors, including the distance, road infrastructure, container size, and the consignee’s preferences.
Documentation and Tracking: Throughout the delivery process, proper documentation, such as shipping manifests and delivery orders, is maintained. Additionally, tracking systems may be used to monitor the containers’ location and provide real-time updates to stakeholders.
Final Delivery: Upon reaching their destination, containers are unloaded and placed at the designated location, which could be a warehouse, industrial facility, or any other specified area. The delivery process may involve additional handling, such as crane operations or forklifts, to ensure safe unloading.
Delivering containers from Onne, Nigeria involves coordinating various logistics operations to ensure the timely and secure movement of goods. Shipping companies, freight forwarders, customs authorities, transporters, and other relevant stakeholders collaborate to facilitate this process effectively.

In mid-May, OOG Plus received a booking from a client to urgently transport a batch of production equipment to Europe by early June. The destination port had strict requirements, and cost management was crucial. The task at hand was challenging: tight timeline, unique cargo specifications, and multiple oversized items, including several items with a width of 4.8 meters and one item with a width of 5.5 meters.
Through the expertise of their specialized team for oversized cargo shipments, OOG Plus devised a comprehensive solution. They determined that a combination of Break Bulk (BBK) and multiple 40FR would be the most suitable for this shipment. This arrangement allowed them to consolidate the cargo into a single shipment, minimizing complexities and ensuring efficient transportation.
With the solution in place, the next step was to coordinate with the shipping company to secure the required space and equipment. Through meticulous review and verification, we successfully confirmed the space for mid-June. In a span of just four days, OOG Plus finalized the solution, booked the space, and arranged for loading. In early June, the factory delivered the goods to OOG Plus’ own oversized cargo warehouse as scheduled, and by mid-month, the shipment set sail flawlessly.
