A mining equipment supplier required the export of 4 units of 60-ton track-mounted mobile crusher units from India to Papua New Guinea. Given the size and weight of each unit, the shipment should be handled as breakbulk / out-of-gauge (OOG) cargo โ requiring specialized lifting, athwart loading, and vessel space planning.

Go Gauge Projects managed the shipment end-to-end as a breakbulk project cargo movement:
๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ด๐ผ ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐๐๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐ & ๐ฒ๐ป๐ด๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ป๐ด: Evaluated dimensions, weight distribution, and lifting points for each 60-ton crusher unit
๐ฃ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ ๐ผ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป๐: Coordinated heavy-duty crane lifting at origin port using a twin-spreader gantry crane rated for heavy-lift operations
๐๐๐ต๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ ๐น๐ผ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ถ๐ป๐ด: Positioned each unit across the vessel's beam (side-to-side, rather than fore-and-aft) to optimize weight distribution and hull stability โ a technique commonly used for oversized, high-tonnage breakbulk cargo that cannot be stowed lengthwise within standard hold or deck space
๐ฆ๐ฒ๐ฎ-๐ณ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ถ๐ป๐ด & ๐น๐ฎ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ด: Secured units for ocean transit in line with breakbulk safety standards

All 4 units were loaded, secured, and shipped safely with no cargo damage, achieving a faster transit schedule than standard project cargo timelines. The shipment demonstrates Go Gauge's capability in handling heavy-lift mining and quarrying equipment on breakbulk vessels across South AsiaโPacific trade lanes.
