Working in close collaboration with its offices and partners in Germany, Senegal, Türkiye and South Korea, Dako Worldwide organised the shipment of 12 HRSG modules, weighing between 138 tonnes and 150 tonnes, with lengths up to 24 m. 

In the port of Dakar, DAKO took over the heavy lift units with its own Goldhofer heavy-duty THP/SL modules to transfer them to the temporary storage area and then for the transport to the jobsite. In order to meet the tight delivery schedule for the installations sequence, DAKO’s partner MONPE Heavy Haulage supplied an additional hydraulic trailer.

In addition to the transport of the modules and accessories, DAKO relocated two transformers weighing 200 tonnes from the temporary storage area to the foundation at the jobsite.
