Sarens supports operations at Amsterdam Zuid Station

0

As part of the ongoing transformation of Station Zuid, Sarens played a crucial role in the safe and efficient removal of platform canopies during a tightly planned weekend operation.

The project, officially titled Zuidasdok OVT, forms part of a broader renovation effort aimed at modernising one of the busiest transport hubs in Amsterdam. Commissioned by Struijk Sloop- en Grondwerken Nederland B.V., the works required precision lifting under strict time constraints and complex logistical conditions.

Executed over the weekend of 11–12 April 2026, the operation involved the removal of existing platform canopies, a key step in upgrading the station’s infrastructure. With the works taking place during a planned outage, and in coordination with the closure of the A10 motorway, timing and efficiency were critical.

Sarens was selected as the crane partner responsible for both horizontal and vertical transport on the project, reinforcing its role as a trusted provider in complex urban environments.

The lifting operations required a carefully selected fleet of cranes, including: AC 700; Liebherr LTM 1500; Liebherr LTM 1650; Liebherr LTM 1150.

These machines were chosen based on the load requirements, reach, and operational constraints of the site. Each canopy, weighing up to 17,5 tonnes (including rigging), was lifted at a maximum radius of 47 metres.

Positioning the cranes directly on the A10 motorway added another layer of complexity, requiring meticulous planning to ensure both stability and safety while operating in a highly constrained space.

Despite the logistical challenges, the operation was completed smoothly and according to schedule. The work was carried out by a dedicated team of 4 crane operators, 8 riggers, and 1 supervisor per shift, all working in close coordination to deliver precise and controlled lifts.

Favourable weather conditions further supported the execution, allowing the team to maintain momentum throughout the operation window.

Projects like Zuidasdok OVT highlight Sarens’ ability to deliver reliable lifting solutions in demanding, time-sensitive environments. By combining the right equipment with experienced personnel and careful planning, Sarens ensured the successful removal of critical infrastructure elements, paving the way for the next phase in the station’s redevelopment.

CEVA is driving the future

0

In an era of rapid industrial transformation, progress is rarely about a single breakthrough, but rather a steady, calculated integration of innovation into everyday operations.

Across Eastern Europe, CEVA Logistics is proving that the transition to low carbon transport is no longer a distant goal, but a regional reality that’s already in motion.

The journey with this in Eastern Europe for CEVA began with a shift in how the company powers its existing fleets. Over the past several years, CEVA has seamlessly integrated HVO100—a sustainable alternative to conventional diesel—into daily linehauls across Poland and the Czech Republic. With a cross-border route between Hungary, the Czech Republic, and Poland already running on HVO100 for over a year, the foundation for sustainable logistics is firmly in place.

However, the next frontier in the regional strategy is the leap into heavy-duty electric vehicle (EV) transport, something CEVA is already doing across many other world regions, including Asia, North America, and Europe, to name a few.

Transitioning to electric power requires more than just new vehicles; it requires a complete rethink of operational timing and infrastructure. Recent pilots in Hungary and the Czech Republic have provided the data needed to make that leap.

In Hungary, an eight-month collaborative preparation culminated in a successful electric truck trial. Partnering with carrier Transhungaria, CEVA linked its customer’s facilities with their distributor. Despite the inherent pressures of loading delays, the EV performed flawlessly, proving that electric solutions can meet real-world operational demands. With a winter range of 500 kilometers and fast-charging capabilities, the next phase of this partnership aims to establish regular 500-kilometer EV flows between the customer’s plants in Hungary.

Similarly, in the Czech Republic, CEVA put an electric MAN low-deck tractor to the test for another customer’s domestic collection project. Over 15 days and 5,000 kilometers, the vehicle moved 24,000 kilograms of goods without a single charging-related delay. By utilizing public charging stations and maintaining strict delivery schedules, the trial saved two tons of CO2e and proved that electric tractors are a viable, high-performance alternative to diesel in daily delivery loops.

Moving beyond the pilot phase, CEVA is implementing a two-year contract for a customer on the Września-Poznań route in Poland. Two electric heavy-duty vehicles will operate 24/5 and charge on-site at customer premises. The EVs are projected to save approximately 280 tons of CO2e annually. This success is the direct result of over a year of rigorous seasonal testing and deep collaboration with local subcontractors.

These regional milestones demonstrate that electric heavy-duty transport is achievable today, even where infrastructure is still developing. As part of its broader decarbonization strategy, CEVA is electrifying its fleet to support the goal—together with the CMA CGM Group—of reaching net zero by 2050. While high costs and limited charging networks remain, CEVA isovercoming these hurdles through strategic partnerships and long-term commitment.

By treating these regional projects not as isolated tests, but as the building blocks of a low carbon future, CEVA is doing more than just moving freight—CEVA is engineering a sustainable value chain for the technologies of tomorrow.

Expertise: We provide specialised knowledge and proven experience.

Accountability: We keep the project’s critical points under control.

With our own fleet of vehicles and specialised equipment, our tailored end-to-end services covers the entire process – from preliminary planning, surveys, and packaging, through lifting, port and terminal handling, documentation, permits, and sea transport, to final deliveries and installation.”

OOG, Breakbulk, Heavy-Lift, and RORO; Site Surveys, Feasibility Assessments; Project Planning and Management; Packaging and Transport Preparation; Lifting and Lashing, and Port and Terminal Handling Operations; Documentation and Permits Administration; Multimodal Pre and On-Carriage; Oversized and Overweight Transport Services.

End-to-End Multimodal Solutions by Road, Rail and Barge; Factory-to-Port and Port-to-Site Deliveries; Route Planning, Surveys & Permits; Escort Services and Traffic Management Coordination; Installation and Positioning at Site; Comprehensive Organisation and Operational Management.

A recent project expertly handled by Oversize Logistics is outlined below.

Cargo: Heavy Machinery & Construction Modules; Weight & Volume: 8 Units at 650ftn / 4600cbm; Location: Hungary; Project Type: Heavy Lift & Turn-Key Delivery; Transport Mode: Inland Waterway and Road

Summary: Transport of oversized and overweight units, moving over 350km after the barge discharging operation.
The project challenges included: Oversized and overweight cargo dimensions, Tight transport schedule, Traffic obstacles on the route to the delivery site, Special lifting and handling requirements, Coordination with multiple stakeholders.

Project Logistics Architect at Oversize Logistics, Viktor Kardos explains; “This project’s primary challenge stemmed from the exceptional dimensions and weight of the critical units. Due to the limited quay wall geometry at the receiving inland river port, crane positioning had to be executed with centimeter-level accuracy to ensure the required turning radius and lifting reach for the safe discharge of the heaviest components.

A further complication arose from inadequate marking of the cargo center of gravity and lifting points, which required us to revise the lifting concept and re-engineer certain handling procedures during discharge operations.”

“The subsequent inland transport at night presented an additional layer of complexity. For the critical units, the overall transport configuration exceeded 55m in length, 5m wide, and 6m high, and weighed up to 260mtn. The delivery route covered 350km, frequently passing through populated urban and semi-urban areas.”

“Each route section, including overpasses, critical bends, and roundabouts, was pre-surveyed and modelled in advance. However, during execution, several sections required on-site reassessment and minor re-engineering to ensure a safe and uninterrupted passage.”

The scope of services provided by Oversize Logistics included: Route survey and feasibility study, Transport engineering and method statement, Heavy lift and crane coordination, Port handling and stevedoring, Road Transportation with permits and escorts.

Viktor continues; “This project was executed using a multimodal heavy-lift transport concept integrating a river barge shipment with specialised road haulage. Our responsibilities covered planning, engineering reviews, route and port assessments, customs support, and coordination of all permits and authority approvals.

Key execution risks related to cargo handling, route restrictions, and infrastructure capacity were assessed and managed before transport. During execution, we supervised the transition from barge discharge to road convoy operations and maintained close coordination with all involved parties. This approach ensured a controlled, reliable, and compliant delivery process.”

Rhenus activates alternative Europe-Middle East land corridor

0

As ongoing regional challenges continue to disrupt traditional logistics routes between Europe and the Middle East, Rhenus has activated a reliable overland corridor via Jordan, providing customers with a stable and efficient alternative for transporting goods into the Gulf region.

The solution connects Türkiye and Europe with key destinations including Saudi Arabia (Riyadh and Dammam), Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates (Jebel Ali, Abu Dhabi), Qatar, Bahrain and Oman. Designed to maintain supply chain continuity in an increasingly volatile environment, the corridor combines road and multimodal transport to offer greater predictability and control.

Within less than one month of operations, Rhenus has already handled more than 10 full truck load (FTL) shipments, moving over 190,000 kilograms of cargo through the corridor, demonstrating both immediate demand and operational scalability.

The setup is supported by close coordination between Rhenus teams in Germany, Italy, Türkiye and United Arab Emirates, ensuring seamless execution across borders and consistent service delivery despite complex conditions.

With supply chains under pressure from evolving geopolitical and operational constraints, companies are increasingly seeking flexible routing options beyond traditional sea freight and direct road connections.

The Jordan corridor offered by Rhenus provides a structured and reliable transport solution, with transit times of 10–13 days from Türkiye and 19–22 days from Europe, depending on border and operating conditions. The service supports a range of cargo types using tautliner (up to 24 tons) and reefer trucks (up to 23 tons), ensuring adaptability to different industries and shipment requirements.

While the solution is primarily based on road and multimodal transport, it is embedded within Rhenus’ global network, allowing customers to complement shipments with air or ocean freight services when needed.

The effectiveness of the corridor is illustrated by a recent time-sensitive shipment of oilfield supply equipment for the customer FTE, worldwide equipment supplier to Oil & Gas sector, from Lyon, France to Dubai. Rhenus completed the transport in just 18 days, combining road and ferry services via Trieste (Italy) and Mersin (Türkiye), before routing the cargo through Jordan into the UAE.

A cross-stuffing operation in Jordan ensured compliance with regional transport requirements and enabled a smooth transition to a GCC-registered vehicle for final delivery. The shipment was completed well within the required timeframe, preventing disruption at the customer’s production site.

By combining regional expertise with an integrated logistics approach, Rhenus is enabling customers to maintain stable supply chains despite ongoing uncertainty. The activation of the Jordan corridor reflects a broader shift in logistics strategies, where resilience, flexibility and control are becoming key priorities.

“Customers are increasingly looking for reliable alternatives as traditional routes face growing pressure,” said Habeeb Kunhipurayil, Regional Manager Air & Ocean – Middle East at Rhenus. “By establishing this corridor, we are able to offer a stable and scalable solution that keeps goods moving between Europe and the Middle East, even under challenging conditions.”

“In a more complex logistics environment, customers need partners who can provide stability, transparency and well-coordinated routing options,” said Mert Gedikçi and Korcan Tuğrul Managing Directors of Rhenus Türkiye. “Türkiye plays a key role as an operational bridge between Europe and the Middle East, and the New Jordan corridor is a practical example of how strong local expertise, cross-border coordination and a reliable partner network help maintain stable transport flows and support customers in securing their supply chains.”

JSI Alliance completes major project in India

0

JSI Alliance is proud to have successfully completed a major project in India for their client Afcons Infrastructure Limited.

Afcons was contracted to construct a new liquid cargo berth for Gujarat Chemical Port Ltd. (GCPL), and they were entrusted with executing critical heavy lifting operations for this development.

Their scope included: Transportation of 18 components from Dighi Port to Dahej; Installation at the new berth over six voyages; Lift weights ranging from 50 to 600 tonnes.

The project was executed using HLV Jumbo Javelin, equipped with the Fly Jib. Challenging conditions, including strong currents, meant dynamic positioning was not feasible. Instead, a temporary 8-point mooring system was installed on board, deployed and connected to pre-laid anchors.

Working in close coordination with two assisting vessels, the first installation was completed in December 2025, with full project delivery achieved in March 2026.

GCPL, located along the Gulf of Khambhat, plays a vital role in handling bulk liquids such as petroleum products, chemicals, and petrochemicals. With this expansion, it is set to increase its handling capacity to 12 million metric tonnes per year.

A strong example of teamwork, precision, and engineering expertise in a complex environment. Well done, and many thanks to all involved!
