Client Background

Meticulous pre-planning was paramount. NMT Projects ensured all necessary materials and a suitable vessel were prepared and positioned precisely. With expert maneuvering, the 110-tonne catamaran was towed out to the ship’s anchorage point and loaded seamlessly.

The Results

NMT Projects’ relentless preparation and deft execution paved the way for a flawless trans-continental journey. The catamaran was loaded, shipped across open waters, and discharged in Guangzhou without any issues – a testament to our ability to conquer any terrain.
