According to UHL, this project involved moving substantial heavy-lift cargo, with each dredger weighing approximately 378 metric tons.

The 36-day voyage was carried out by the UHL Fighter, with the crew managing both loading and discharging operations with precision, resulting in an incident-free delivery.

UHL said that this operation kicked off with a pre-loadout meeting and inspections at the IHC shipyard, ensuring alignment on all technical documentation and safety procedures.

This foundation was critical for the execution of the complex transport, the company concluded.
