SPECIAL PROJECTS

The transportation of large indivisible loads or other extraordinary items of cargo require specialised planning and co-ordination of transport resources overland and by sea.

LGSA MARINE provides planning, risk assessment, evaluation and logistics control management services to ensure that the risks involved are minimised and the project is successfully accomplished.

Each project is unique, requiring wider knowledge and experience. With the long history of LGSA and PL&Co and the experience of surveyors in marine casualties, we are better placed than most to assess risks associated with special projects on behalf of our customers.

We work closely with our customers and their contractors alike in establishing the available resources and assessing the critical and high-risk aspects. Our customers benefit from our assessment in appreciating the risks involved and managing the risks effectively.

Some of the recent projects to our credit are:

HMS "Trincomalee Project" and consultancy
