This project details the careful logistics required to deliver four massive transformers. Our team successfully received these units directly from a vessel at Jebel Ali Port. We then transported them to the Hassyan Power Plant. This plant is a major 2.4GW gas fired facility on the Arabian Gulf coast. It plays a huge role in local energy security and supports the local Clean Energy Strategy 2050.
Why does moving 85 MT transformers demand expertise?
Transformers are critical for power generation. They are extremely heavy and contain sensitive internal parts. A single unit weighs 85 metric tons and stands 4.1 meters high. Moving four of these massive units requires careful planning to prevent any damage during transit.

| Power Transformer | Energy Generation | 85 Metric Tons | 4100 mm |
Key Cargo Dimensions
What specialized equipment ensured safe transport of the crane?
Standard flatbed trucks cannot carry an 85 ton load. We used specialized hydraulic multi axle trailers to move these heavy units from the port to the power plant.
Key operational solutions that we provided:
- Direct Vessel Receiving: We received the cargo right from the ship crane to minimize handling risks.
- Secure Port Stooling: We carefully rested the transformers on strong steel supports inside the port storage area until the site was ready for delivery.
- Precision Transport: Our expert drivers used hydraulic multi axle trailers to keep the heavy cargo perfectly balanced on the road.
What key logistical challenges were overcome?
The success of this power plant delivery relied on exact timing and expert heavy lift engineering.
