September 26 2025

Globus Transitos recently completed a complex Breakbulk shipment operation, successfully transporting five oversized autoclaves from Jingtang Port, China to Kolkata Port, India. Each unit weighed an impressive 50 metric tons, presenting both logistical and operational challenges.

Key Shipment Details:

Port of Loading (POL): Jingtang, China

Port of Discharge (POD): Kolkata, India

Commodity: Autoclaves

Dimensions: Odd-sized, heavy-lift

Weight: 50 MT per unit

Number of Units: 5

Mode: Breakbulk

Navigating the Challenges

Jingtang Port's limited infrastructure posed a significant hurdle — with only a single berth equipped with a shore crane capable of handling cargo of this weight. The complexity of lifting and loading such massive units deterred most vessel owners, with few willing to call at the port under these constraints.

Despite the odds, the Globus Transitos team mobilized its global network and market intelligence to find a suitable vessel. After rigorous market scouting, the team not only secured an appropriate vessel but also successfully induced a port call at Jingtang, ensuring the shipment could proceed on schedule.

Operational Excellence

The loading operation was executed with precision and efficiency, showcasing Globus Transitos' expertise in handling breakbulk and project cargo. The successful delivery of the autoclaves to Kolkata highlights the company’s ability to overcome infrastructure limitations and deliver critical industrial cargo across challenging trade routes.
