GS Express Logistics, member of XLProjects oversee incinerator plant revival project in Malaysia

GS Express Logistics Sdn. Bhd., XLProjects member based in Malaysia was contracted with receiving, handling and transportation of 2 main sections of Incinerators from Penang Port, Malaysia to Langkawi Incinerator Plant, Kampung Belanga Pecah, Langkawi, Malaysia. This project was in line with the Government’s Incinerator Plant revival efforts.

One set of Vessel Bridge and one set of Platform hydraulic multi axle trailer were arranged to receive the said cargoes from Mother Vessel at Penang Port and they were then transferred to a Prai Jetty and rolled onto a 180ft barge and tied down. Barge then sailed from Prai Jetty to Tanjung Lembung Jetty, Langkawi for roll off operation.
The distance from Tanjung Lembung Jetty, Langkawi to the Incinerator Plant was 20km and the transportation route had to be done through Langkawi’s main town which is Kuah Town and also housing villages. Police escorts, local authorities escort and cable lines dismantling teams had to be arranged throughout the entire transportation and the transportation duration took 9 hours to complete.
Once at site, both main sections of incinerators were jacked down onto support stools for onward assembly works by site.
This said delivery by GS Express Logistics Sdn. Bhd. to this Incinerator plant is the second time we were involved with logistics works with the plant as we were the same logistics partner appointed to set up the plant back in 2009.
