LPG Storage Vessels

Transport of storage vessels from Tomago NSW to Lang Lang Victoria (1200 km)

The vessels were transported using the 999 series platform trailer. The trailer is designed to carry tanks and other vessels lower to the ground. This allows larger diameter tanks to be carried than by conventional means

Accurate hydraulic suspension over three zones ensures the vessel is never twisted or bent during the journey

Moving vessels from manufacturing facility to the blasting and painting facility. Equipment used is 960 Series platform trailer. The comparison in height can be seen between the two different methods. Obstructions enroute do not allow this method to be used

Three prime movers (two pulling and one pushing) are used to haul the vessel and trailer once the GCM exceeds 150 Tonnes
