Transportation of hydro turbine runner, Canada to Sweden

ALE arranged the door-to-door transportation of a hydro turbine runner from our client’s factory in Montreal to a hydro power station near Umea in Sweden.

The work involved in this logistical operation included a transport study from the factory to Montreal airport; a rigging study and loading and lashing plan at the airport; and rigging, discharge and transport studies for operations in Sweden including access to the underground turbine hall.  ALE co-ordinated the transportation of the runner from the factory to Montreal airport and supervised the loading together with the chartering of the aircraft. ALE also oversaw the discharge in Sweden and the transportation to site.
