USA Barge Weather Analysis: Ensuring Safe Transport with MBM USA Transporting cargo via flat deck barges is a common practice in the maritime industry, providing efficient and cost-effective solutions for various goods and materials. However, the success and safety of these barge operations heavily depend on meticulous planning and accurate weather analysis. In collaboration with

MBM Conducted the MWS for 5 Shipments of Monopiles for Taiwan up to 1200 Tons from Nordenham in Germany In the world of heavy lift shipping, few companies possess the expertise and capabilities to handle large-scale transportation projects with utmost precision. MBM recently conducted the loadout and sea-fastening operations for five shipments of monopiles for

On Tuesday, 25.11.2014, Mr Mark Bambury held a great Presentation at the Mariko Center in Leer. The topic for the Presentation was: “ How innovation in the shipbuilding sector can be adapted to the needs and operational requirements of the offshore-wind-energy.” Over 40 interested people from the industry and students from the University Emden/Leer listened to

Do a vessels motion analysis for securing the cargo in all upcoming weather conditions (Results in 24hours). In transportation the weather plays an important role, where the Ships motion is dependent upon the sea condition.  So we do we cater during a voyage for the variation in sea states.When the weather is calm, cargo can

MBM assist the EPC with their first ever loading of a sea transportation aboard a vessel. The client is familiar with the rules and procedures with barge transportation, but has never transported on a vessel. The rules and process’s for a sea cargo transport to weld, engineer, and secure a cargo on a vessel are

The review to extend a new build vessel was undertaken at MBM. The original vessel design was reviewed based on potential markets and operational conditions to provide an optimum working solution. The focus of the project was on operations. Defining the number of cranes, their frame location, the stability at these frames during lifting operations,

When MBM was approached to conceive a solution to transport 1,000,000 tons of sludge water, it first seamed simplistic analysis of a free surface within a hold. However, as the project gained momentum, the detail design to solve all issues of settling during transport, loading and discharge were considered, it quickly became apparent that a

The transition of TP’s on the deck of a vessel always causes controversy. Which steel structural option to implement! There are two main focus’s, either Option 1 . A tailor made design. High initial investment, long term cost reductions, no vessel flexibility, repeat use for many multiple projects with the same cargo and vessel Option

MBM was given a task to define a method to stow trains without additional D-rings or welding. The freight forwarder had the aim to maintain the operation without welding as it would be an issue at port of discharge and also to maintain costs of the project, and to assist in returning the vessel to

4x560ton Monopiles were successfully loaded on a vessel with 1 hold, LBP=96m, Deadweight =4630t. The vessel hatchcovers were folding type with strength 1.71t/m^2. The transport frame for the cargo was made from HEB 280’s and simply positioned to distribute the roll motion forces to the main transversals of the hatchcover. The added structure was designed
