Utrecht/Netherlands – Fabricated by Quality International Co. FZC, one of the leading module fabrication and assembly yards in the UAE, the modules were loaded out in a monumental operation at Khalifa Port, Abu Dhabi Ports’ flagship deepwater multi-purpose port. Achieving this milestone required seamless coordination with port operations, including adjustments to infrastructure to handle oversized cargo.

Every stage of the operation was thoroughly studied by Mammoet engineers to guarantee safe and efficient execution. The project also marked the largest outward shipment in Khalifa Port’s history.

The modules were moved from the fabrication yard at Khalifa Port South Quay to the adjacent quayside, covering approximately 2.5 kilometers, before being loaded out and shipped in four consignments.

Mammoet’s scope included weighing the modules using twelve 300t and eighteen 150t jack and load cells, applied in different configurations depending on each module’s size and weight. For transport and loadout, Mammoet deployed 120 axle lines of self-propelled modular transporters (SPMT) and four power pack units.
