JSL Qatar Complete Industrial Plant Relocation Project

JSL Qatar Complete Industrial Plant Relocation Project
JSL Qatar Complete Industrial Plant Relocation Project

JSL Global Qatar have recently reported a large undertaking involving the relocation of an industrial plant from Qatar to Constanta, Romania. JSL provided a feasibility study to their client almost 8 months prior to actual shipment delivery date.

The main challenge the company ran into during the exporting of this plant ex-Qatar was the multiple owners of the factory. Many of the owners changed and most of the material was procured locally from Turkiye and the UAE. Additionally, the original shipping documents were missing which meant JSL were required to authenticate the ownership and generated export documents.

To overcome this obstacle, JSL Qatar worked with multiple governmental agencies to put the case to the authorities. After 6 weeks of rigorous follow up, the relevant authorities approved the export.

Another challenge awaited JSL due to the on-going war between Russia and Ukraine. Breakbulk rates proved too high and their client was operating on a strict budget. JSL reached out to European vessel owners and made this transport possible with committed, budgeted figures.

Police escorts & route surveys were key factors in this project, considering the longest pieces of cargo which measured at 28 and 32 meters. JSL's project team planned to place these two girders on a multi-axle trailer after several meetings with heavy lift haulers.

After loading the cargo at the site in Qatar, when JSL began their route, the convoy plus escort vehicles were measured at 112 meters long!

The JSL project team worked with the staff at Q-Terminal continuously for 3 days, personally supervising the safe off-loading of cargo inside Hamad Port, which was then loaded aboard the breakbulk vessel MV Rudolf. A third party cargo survey was also carried out by JSL to ensure safety was kept as a top priority.

Finally - after import customs formalities, the full shipment was delivered to their client within one week's time to avoid any issues with port storage. JSL handled this difficult plant relocation successfully, and the cargo was safely delivered to the client's site in Romania.
