Combi Lift India and Combi Lift Bremen were responsible for the project, with expert support from SAL Engineering. 17 packages with a combined weight of 617.7 tonnes were moved from from Mumbai, India, to Arzew, Algeria. From Oman, Combi Lift coordinated delivery 16 packages totalling 3,646.6 cu m with the heaviest package at 196.3 tonnes and the longest measuring 43.9 m.

The delivery had to navigate through extensive civil work in Oman due to routes damaged by rainfall and had to bypass the Red Sea due to insurance restrictions.

Last month, HLPFI reported that Ralph Stierli had joined Combi Lift Projects USA as chief operating officer.

Worldwide requirements for upgraded basic infrastructure, notably transport systems and public utilities, will continue driving long-term demand for new civil engineering projects. Shorter-term, though, geopolitical issues, notably repercussions from new USA-led international trade tariffs and the war in Ukraine, are likely to harm the sector. Phil Hastings reports.

One of the more significant long-term trends in the global civil engineering sector, particularly relevant to project logistics providers, is the growing adoption of progressive design-build (PDB). This project delivery method promotes early collaboration between the design and construction phases to help mitigate delays and cost overruns. The shift is broadly welcomed by logisticians, who have long advocated for earlier and closer coordination across project stakeholders, writes Phil Hastings.
