On-site Logistics

Not every heavy component can be positioned using conventional lifting equipment. Limited access, confined spaces, structural restrictions, or operational constraints often require alternative handling methods specifically engineered for each project.

Eastship designs and executes bespoke heavy handling solutions for the movement, positioning, relocation, and installation of oversized industrial equipment. Our in-house engineering team develops custom methodologies that combine transport engineering with specialized handling systems, allowing components to be safely positioned where conventional cranes or standard transport equipment cannot operate.

Our on-site logistics capabilities include industrial relocations, high voltage transformer placement, heavy equipment positioning, jacking and skidding, internal transport, and specialized lifting and handling.

From temporary rail systems and custom-built trolleys to hydraulic jacking and skidding arrangements, every solution is designed around the project's technical requirements, site conditions and installation sequence.

Iernut Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) factory project

As part of the Iernut Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) factory project in Romania, Eastship provided autoclave transport and on-site logistics services for seven industrial autoclaves in 2024. The seven autoclaves were transported over a distance exceeding 700 kilometres as part of the logistics requirements for the new AAC production facility. Each autoclave measured 24 meters in length, 3.3 meters in height, 3 meters in width, weighed 45 tons. Autoclave Transport The tran

How Eastship Executed Complex Heavy-Lift On-Site Logistics for the Vidraru Dam Upgrade

Vidraru Dam Upgrade Project: Complex On-Site Logistics in a Challenging Mountain Environment

Hydropower infrastructure projects are among the most demanding undertakings in the industrial sector. They require a perfect alignment of engineering expertise, specialized equipment, and calculated execution—especially when the site is a historic engineering marvel built into a steep mountain face. For the landmark Vidraru Dam upgrade project, Eastship was employed by Electromontaj to handle the high-stakes on-site offloading, maneuvering, and precision foundation placement

300-Tonne Fractionator Transport to Petrobrazi Refinery: From Route Engineering to Final Positioning

Transporting oversized industrial equipment is rarely defined by distance alone. The complexity lies in the engineering required to move the cargo safely through existing infrastructure and deliver it to its final installation area. This was the case with the transportation of a 300-tonne fractionator manufactured by Walter Tosto WTB and delivered from Bucharest to the Petrobrazi Refinery in Romania. The road journey covered approximately 210 kilometres, but the project requi

High Voltage Transformer Placement

Unloading, hydraulic jacking, skidding and precise positioning of high voltage transformers at substations and power facilities.

Temporary storage

In addition, our team can arrange for safe temporary storage of equipment and materials, ensuring our clients’ assets are secure until they are ready to be transported to their final destination. With our expertise and resources, we have successfully completed numerous on-site logistics projects for clients across various industries.

Industrial Relocations

Industrial RelocationsEastship provides industrial relocation and machinery relocation services as part of its integrated on-site logistics capabilities. We coordinate the movement of heavy and oversized equipment within industrial facilities, between production sites and across project locations.Industrial relocation projects can involve machinery, production lines, transformers, generators, industrial equipment and other heavy components. Depending on the project, our scope can include lifting, jacking, skidding, internal transport, specialized road transport, temporary storage and final positioning.Each relocation is planned around the equipment, facility layout, access conditions, floor capacity, lifting requirements and installation sequence. Our in-house teams coordinate the engineering, transport and handling activities required to move the equipment safely from its existing position to its new location.For larger relocations, Eastship can integrate industrial relocation, heavy transport, multimodal logistics and final positioning into a single project logistics solution.
