Along with the splitter Boxco also transported a 380t quench water tower, a 250t demethaniser and their accessories. Scheuerle-Kamag said that due to the splitter’s size transportation to Adani port was a challenge. Road widening and the removal of obstacles such as dividers and light poles were necessary before the column could moved. Electrical line shutdowns also had to be arranged with the local electricity boards.
Once the route had been prepared the transportation was carried out using the Scheuerle-Kamag K25 self-propelled modular transporters. The Boxco team had to deal with turning restrictions such as dividers, road ends and conveyor belts. The transportation of the three pieces of equipment was carried out over four days. At the port the entrance had to be raised in order to move the convoys into its premises. On-site transportation was a challenge due to the port’s narrow passages.
