Vantage Logistics Completes Handover of Oversized Equipment for the Quang Trach 1 Thermal Power Plant – A National Key Energy Project under the Quang Trach Power Centre, Quang Tri Province

Vantage Logistics has completed the handover of two Continuous Ship Unloader (CSU) systems and accessories moved from Shanghai, China to Hon La Port, Viet Nam. This oversized shipment plays a crucial role in finalising a key component of the Quang Trach 1 Thermal Power Plant – a national strategic energy project currently under development at the Quang Trach Power Centre. The CSU systems are core elements of the plant. They perform the full coal unloading process from bulk carriers and ensure a stable fuel supply to both generating units. Their timely installation is essential for the plant to meet its commissioning schedule. Supporting a National Energy Project: Ensuring Progress and Supply Security Project: Quang Trach 1 Thermal Power Plant, part of the Quang Trach Power Centre Investor: Vietnam Electricity (EVN) Project Manager: Power Project Management Board No. 2 (PMB2) Location: Quang Trach Power Centre, Quang Dong Commune, Quang Trach District, Quang Tri Province Under the guidance of the Government and EVN, the key target for the project is to synchronise Unit 1 to the national grid in December 2025, strengthening national energy security and supporting stable electricity supply for the central and southern regions. The completion of the CSU handover in September 2025 ensures that the project’s equipment supply timeline is maintained, supporting PMB2 in executing several critical work packages. This reinforces Vantage Logistics’ position as a trusted logistics partner for large-scale energy developments. Energy Development Landscape in North Central Viet Nam The progress of the Quang Trach 1 project takes place as the North Central region undergoes significant structural changes: Administrative merger: From 1 July 2025, Quang Binh and Quang Tri officially merged to form the new Quang Tri Province, covering approximately 12,700 km² with a population of around 1.87 million. The region now possesses an expanded development corridor, including a 240-km coastline and a network of strategic multimodal logistics infrastructure (Hon La Port, My Thuy Port, Dong Hoi Airport, and Quang Tri Airport). Large-scale shift towards cleaner energy at the Quang Trach Power Centre: The centre is not only home to Quang Trach 1 but also to several major projects driving the region’s energy transition: Quang Trach II LNG Power Plant: Capacity 1,500 MW (2 × 750 MW), investment capital approx. VND 52,490 billion. The project is finalising its feasibility study and EPC contractor selection, with groundbreaking expected in Q4/2025 (December). Quang Trach III LNG Power Plant: Included in Power Development Plan VIII, located in Phu Trach Commune with a planned capacity of 1,500 MW. Investor selection (proposed as EVN) is underway for implementation during 2031–2035. Coal Import Terminal & Breakwater: Featuring two berths for vessels up to 100,000 DWT (coal throughput 7.2 million tonnes/year), ensuring stable fuel reception. This is also where the newly handed-over CSU systems will operate. 500 kV Quang Trach – Doc Soi Transmission Line: Successfully energised for technical testing. The double-circuit line spans more than 500 km, connecting the Quang Trach Power Centre to the national grid and ensuring stable transmission capacity. The integrated development of these components not only meets growing electricity demand but also reflects the long-term vision of EVN and the Vietnamese Government under Power Development Plan VIII. It strengthens economic growth prospects and state revenue for the newly formed Quang Tri Province, creating strategic collaboration opportunities for logistics partners such as Vantage Logistics.

Vantage Successfully Delivered Shipment For Power Plant Project In Cote D’Ivoire – Africa

  Due to the nature of the shipment as high-value goods with oversized dimensions (11/20 packages with a width of over 7m), the utmost caution is required in the handling of the shipment. To do this, Vantage Project has arranged a team of deligation staff, engineers and field supervisors to closely monitor each stage in the shipment processing process since the factory until the goods arrive at the port and load onto the ship. Besides, due to the effects of the prolonged epidemic situation, the project has been delayed many times. The parties had difficulties in finalizing the cargo storage plan becaus of the contract between the parties such as: storing goods at the factory’s warehouse or at the port or at the yard outside the factory and the port… Vantage had actively offered a variety of solutions for client so that they can choose the most optimal plan that meets their needs. At the same time, before the ship docks in Vietnam, it must dock at an Indonesian port, however, due to stormy weather and prolonged port jams, leaving Indonesian ports has become difficult and delayed many times before being officially docked at Dung Quat port. Vantage at this time has maximized its role in connecting the parties, monitoring the ship schedule every day extremely closely and regularly informing the parties so as not to delay the shipment’s progress.   Vantage Successfully Delivered Shipment For Power Plant Project In Cote D’Ivoire – Africa Recently, Vantage Logistics’ Projects Department continued to successfully transport a shipment of nearly 3,000 CBM to the Atinkou Combined-Cycle power plant in Cote D’Ivoire, Africa. – Project name: Atinkou Combined-Cycle Power plant in Cote D’Ivoire – Commodity: silencer exhaust systems – Volume: 20 packages, total volume of 190.4 tons ~ 3,000CBM, of which, the longest unit is 10.14mL x 5.15mW x 3.43mH – 14.3 tons, the widest unit is 7.96mL x 7.50mW x 364mH – 8.9 tons. – Vantage’s scope of work: + Inland transport from the seller’s mechanical workshop in Quang Ngai to the PTSC Dung Quat port yard. + Delivery from the yard in PTSC Dung Quat port to alongside the vessel. – Shipment time: April – May 2022...

Successfully Shipping DG Shipment For Solar Power Projects In The US

– Commodity: equipment (Cube Gen6 – DG goods) & accessories – Volume: 211×40’HC for DG + 5×40’HC for Non-DG – Weight: 27.3 tons/cont. – Vantage’s scope: port charge, delivery coordination – Shipment time: 20 – 30/11/2021 Because most of the containers are DG goods (with batteries), it is required to monitor the shipper’s packing and delivery schedule carefully and closely so that the port can prepare a suitable plan for loading and storing containers. One thing worth noting about this shipment is that although the goods are loaded in containers, they are transported by break bulk. This leads to a difficult situation in coordination because shippers, transportation services and port of discharge are all specialized in container transportation and lack of bulk vessel expertise, while ship owners and ship agents are well served in the bulk services but lack of expertise in container goods. The application of bulk ship knowledge combined with the container handling process is a challenge that the Vantage Project staff has done very well to act as a focal point to share and guide two opposing fields so that they can shake hands to connect and complete the shipment to load on board on schedule, without any problems.   In addition, shippers, consignees and related parties in the US, Germany, and Vietnam with different time zones lead to difficulties in communication and information exchange, moreover, goods exported to the US need to declare many types of documents. However, with the role of project coordinator, Vantage has coordinated well with the parties to complete the delivery schedule and documents to keep up with the ship schedule, helping the customer achieve the required progress on the project implementation time. Successfully Shipping DG Shipment For Solar Power Projects In The US Vantage has just completed a project to transport a shipment of more than 200 containers by break bulk vessel with the role of coordinator for a solar power project in the US....

Vantage Successful Handled A Super Huge Shipment For Adani Wind Power Project

Overall about the Project: This is considered as wind power ‘peak season’ as investors accelerate the progress of wind power projects in order to connect to national electric grid in October to enjoy the preferential purchase price in November 2021; so the handling the movement of outsize project cargo to support this sector there is a lack of experienced personnel locally available, as well as a lack of appropriate means of transport for heavy and outsize freight and a shortage of the large cranes needed for loading and unloading. To add to these challenges, the port of discharge of the shipment was jammed with cargo for other wind power projects. Given that Vantage’s customer had set a deadline of just a month for the cargo to reach its destination, there were plenty of challenges for the forwarder’s team to overcome. This project included eight turbines and its accessories, of which, each turbine set included the turbine head (or nacelle), various tower sections, tower base, blades and various other large and heavy parts. The cargo represented a total volume of 4,295.8 tons; the heaviest individual pieces (the nacelles) weighed in at 98.8 tons and measured a formidable 9.8m by 4.2m by 4m, the longest individual pieces (the blade) is 68.646m; The turbines will support Adani Green Energy’s huge wind power project in central Vietnam. Vantage’s Scope of works: Vantage undertook the master list application, Customs clearance, the preparation of storage areas as required at the job site, the movement of the turbines by truck to their destination and crane operation for loading and discharging as required. – Consulting with authorities at the port of discharge to minimize the effects of the congestion at the port – Constructing temporary yards to store goods near the job site, in order to save time and transportation costs – Liaising with the appropriate Vietnamese Customs Department on Customs clearance and post-inspection – Putting in place the appropriate resources such as transport equipment, lifting and unloading equipment and cranes A total of 92 truck journeys were required to haul the turbines from Cam Ranh city to the job site at Ninh Thuan province. A combination of multi-axle low-bed trailers were employed to move the equipment, such as: – 4/6/8 axels low-bed trailers to transport hubs and towers – 12 axels low-bed trailers to transport machine heads – 52m extendable trailers to transport blades – Flat bed / 3 axels low-bed trailers to transport other pieces Because of the weight and size of the loads, Vantage had to apply for specific permissions from the relevant local authorities. It also had to undertake road surveys, strengthen patches of road and relocate electricity pylons, lights, road signs and even house fences in order for the trucks to safely negotiate the route. This project brings together experienced and professional personnel for the job, including construction engineers, transportation engineers, project managers at construction sites and ports, vehicle dispatchers and health and safety managers; as well as ensure HSE for all participants such as Covid test 3 3days/time, tool box meeting before every transportation journey. The project was handled between May and June this year, with all the cargo arriving safely as scheduled. This job represented the first time that Vantage had been chosen as a subcontractor by Adani, and the customer was delighted with Vantage Project’s performance. Indeed, Adani has confirmed in the project completion certificate that, “The subcontract works performed by Vantage Logistics Corporation have been done [to] high standards of professionalism, quality and dedication which met our very tight delivery schedule.” Vantage Successful Handled A Super Huge Shipment For Adani Wind Power Project It recently handled the overland movement of eight GE 3.4MW wind turbines from the port of Cam Ranh in Vietnam’s Khanh Hoa province to a job site in Ninh Thuan province....

Successful Transportation of 3 Shipments For Pensacola Wind Power Project

1st Shipment: – Volume: 20 crates, gross weight 9.5 tons/crate, total weight 190 tons, dimension 2.82mL x 2.82mL x 1.3mL/crate – Shipment time: 31th May 2021 to 3 June 2021 The highlighted point of this shipment is that the crates were originally made for forklift handling and not for any crane handling, but the ship loading request to be done by crane and this discrepancy was only raised just very close to vessel arrival date. In order to keep up with vessel schedule (which is very hard to secure space during this period of time and a delay or cancel may mean that an amount of deadfreight must be paid and shipment can be delay for several weeks), the factory did not have enough time to re-pack, Vantage’s technical staff coordinated with the factory to urgently work out the solution to enforce the package with L-steel bar and involve beams and frame in crane loading, to ensure safety of cargo. The shipment was safely loaded matched with schedule. Work out the solution to enforce the package with L-steel bar and involve beams and frame in crane loading, to ensure safety of cargo 2nd Shipment: – Volume: 30 crates, gross weight 9.5 tons/crate, total weight 285 tons, dimension 2.82mL x 2.82mL x – Shipment time: 12 – 15 June 2021 3rd Shipment: – Volume: 30 crates, gross weight 9.5 tons/crate, total weight 285 tons, dimension 2.82mL x 2.82mL x – Shipment time: 14 – 16 June 2021 For shipment 2 & 3, Vantage continues to apply the same solution for package enforcement and loading method. However, the Covid spread situation became serious, the factory imposed strict HSE control, our drivers had to stay in truck during the whole time truck pick up cargo. Besides, the tarpaulin wrapping must be done inside factory only with limit entrance and exit of equipment and workers. Vantage matched all the strict control and do not let these limits to affect the loading schedule. In addition, the mobilization of vehicles for inland transport for both shipments with the number of up to 16 units is a difficult mission because of the scarcity of vehicles in this period, of which, 4-axle vehicle transporting 4 crates/vehicle, 3-axle vehicle transporting 3 crates/vehicle, Vantage has used its resources to ensure enough vehicles and deliver these goods as scheduled.
