TIBA handled the transport of a 250-tonne Manitowoc crane, made up of 29 pieces, from Puerto Angamos in Chile to a vessel anchored off the coast of Urabá, Antioquia, with final delivery in Turbo, Colombia. It was a particularly complex and highly specialized operation, planned in detail and executed with real precision.
The operation involved:
- Pick-up of the equipment from the yard in Antofagasta and transfer to an authorised depot
- Professional high-pressure cleaning
- Export customs clearance and documentation management
- Loading at Puerto Angamos using terminal and vessel cranes
- Around 15 days of sea transit
- Open-water discharge directly onto a hopper barge
Overall, this was a rare and technically demanding move, completed successfully and under close control at every stage.
TIBA is a member of Cross Ocean representing Chile & Portugal
