Delivering Anchors from France to Singapore
A Logistics Plus® Supply Chain Success Story!Anchors Aweigh: Delivering Out-of-Gauge Cargo from France to Singapore
THE STORY
When a global marine and offshore equipment supplier needed to transport a complex load of anchors from southern France to Singapore, they turned to Logistics Plus France for end-to-end coordination. The challenge involved multiple cargo types, oversized freight, and cross-functional timing between ground transport, terminal stuffing, and ocean freight handoff.
Leveraging its deep project cargo expertise, Logistics Plus France orchestrated every leg of the move—from inland collection at Port-La Nouvelle to final ocean shipment from Fos-sur-Mer to Singapore. The result? A smooth, multi-container, international delivery of critical offshore components handled with precision and care.
THE HIGHLIGHTS
- Multi-Container Coordination: The move involved a variety of container types—20 x 20’ Open Tops (IG), 1 x 20’ Dry Van, and 6 x 40’ Flat Racks (OOG)—requiring careful pre-planning, weight distribution, and loading sequences.
- End-to-End Execution in France: LP France managed pickup at Port-La Nouvelle using Transports Garonne, coordinated inland trucking to the EUROFOS terminal, and oversaw terminal stuffing and vessel readiness.
- Ocean Freight to Southeast Asia: The entire consolidated shipment was loaded and shipped via CMA CGM from Fos-sur-Mer to Singapore Port (SGSIN), maintaining schedule and secure handling throughout.
- Project Cargo Expertise in Action: With tight coordination across teams, carriers, and terminals, LP France demonstrated its ability to deliver large-volume, out-of-gauge marine cargo—reliably and professionally.
