CRITICAL POINTS

• The tubes were fairily fragile and had stackability index 2, so we had to employ a twin decker charter ship for our transport in order to optimize the loading and the lashing of the tubes.
• The fastening of the tubes for transport was also very difficoult because they needed certified shaped wooden saddles
• The shipment took place during the COVID-19 pandemic and made the planning very complex.
