From Port of Veracruz, Mexico, to Misurata, Libya

Tuscor Lloyds handled the transport of 80 tons of plant equipment from Mexico to Libya.

The cargoes included asphalt plant machinery and a scalping screen, which were shipped as ro-ro cargo on specially manufactured trailer chassis. Due the the nature of the chassis and cargo, the pieces could not be top-lifted, Tuscor Lloyds said in a statement.

Once cargoes were loaded onto a vessel at the Port of Veracruz, the chassis were secured using heavy duty ratchet straps. The ship sailed to the Port of Antwerp where the equipment was loaded and lashed
to a second vessel for the voyage to Misurata.
