Aluminum Vessel Project
PPL implemented the Aluminum Ship Project from March 22, 2023 to April 3, 2023.
Goals & Scope of Work
In this project, PPL was responsible for transporting the newly built H425 twin-hull aluminum vessel from the Austal shipyard to the Dong Xuyen port using a SPMT self-propelled hydraulic trailer, and then transferring it to PPL's barges for transport to the Ba Son Shipyard Port.
Cargo dimensions:
- Weight: 460.5 tons
- Length: 66.87m; Width: 15.535m; Height: 19.94m.
- Total deadweight: 2918 tons
Solutions & Deployment
At Ba Son Shipyard Port, PPL unloaded the aluminum vessel from the barge onto the Ba Son wharf and moved it into the workshop for launching.
After Ba Son launches the aluminum vessel, PPL will arrange tugboats and towboats to tow the vessel from the Ba Son wharf to the Dong Xuyen wharf for Austal to complete the ship.
