WSS Ship 3 Surface Miners from Oman and the UAE to Bahrain

Wilhelmsen Ships Service (WSS) are pleased to share a recent successfully completed project of heavy equipment loaded at the Ports of Salalah (Oman) and Al Hamriya (UAE) and shipped to Bahrain.

The WSS teams managed the entire project operation for the shipment in Oman, the UAE and Bahrain. As well as the shipping, their services also covered:

Lift & Discharge Operations & Port Call Pre-Planning
Vessel Service Pre-Planning
Arrival Arrangements
Arrival Clearance
Monitoring of Vessel Operations
Vessel Boarding
Departure Arrangements
Coordination with Shipper & Port for Smooth Loading & Unloading
ETA, Arrival, ETD & Noon Reports
Timely Documentation Arrangements Avoiding Detentions and Ensuring the Ease of Customs Clearances

Even though the cargo was used equipment which required special handling, the WSS experienced teams coordinated excellently with the shipper, vessel master and port operators to ensure the cargo loading and unloading was completed safely and on time.
