In July 2019, the company “VIKAR” performed river transportation of oversized cargo on the route: special train AEM p. Volgodonsk is a temporary berth in the village of Drakino, Moscow region.
Transportation was carried out in conditions of extreme low water on the Oka river in the area of Murom and Serpukhov. To carry out the transportation, we used our own diving forces and a soil-washing complex. The unique feature of transportation was the rolling of a 356-ton Synthesis Column from one barge to another “afloat”, on the roadstead, in the absence of coastal infrastructure.
The customer of the transportation was RTL LLC.
