Project
Haul 600 tonnes of telecom supplies

Hauling by barge of a 64-tonne reel for the oil industry from Manitowoc, Wisconsin, to the Port of Montreal, for subsequent transport to Scotland.

Context
Loading at the supplier’s warehouse, chartering of a barge to cross the Great Lakes toward the Port of Montreal for reloading onto a vessel destined for Scotland.

Outcomes
Despite a storm that hit the Great Lakes and brought the barge to a halt for two days, the shipment arrived on time to be loaded onto a Maersk ship toward its final destination.
