ABSTRACT

Project Cargo, or project freight logistics, is a special type of freight shipping that suggests moving high-volume and high-price freight. Project freight can be national or global. The main difference in Project Cargo logistics from regular shipments is the unusual amounts and types of freight. Planning is crucial, the most important step in project freight logistics management. From securing capacity and equipment to risk management, every link of Project Cargo matters. “Project Cargo” is a term used to broadly describe the national or international transportation of large, heavy, high-value or complex pieces of equipment. The materials can be sourced globally, or from one individual location. Successful project transportation practices require a smart planning process from the preliminary stages. Countries have different regulations when it comes to Customs compliance, documentation, taxation, duties, exemptions, licenses and many other considerations. The Oil and Gas industry essentially involves exploring, utilising and transporting hazardous materials.
