Matola, Mozambique-headquartered special transport company Transportes Lalgy used 18 axle lines of Faymonville CombiMAX to transport large components for a large offshore gas project.

The components, 12km of mooring chains and more than 60 cable reels, arrived by sea at a local port. The reels were over 5m-tall and weighed 65t, while the individual chains and their steel baskets weighed up to 150t.

They had to be transported to a storage site in Maputo in the South of the country. For this task, Transportes Lalgy deployed 18 axle lines of Faymonville CombiMAX configured into two trailers of 8 and 10 axles, each featuring a gooseneck.

For several years, Lalgy had been operating a 7-axle CombiMAX setup. It recently expanded its fleet with another 11 axle lines with numerous accessories.

For this job, the company worked together with Bolloré Transport & Logistics.
