L'énergie

Solutions énergétiques pour la chaîne d'approvisionnement, tant pour les cargaisons au gabarit que pour les cargaisons surdimensionnées et hors gabarit.

Industries que nous servons

Nous soutenons la chaîne d'approvisionnement énergétique mondiale en transportant des infrastructures énergétiques clés dans le monde entier. L'équipe de la chaîne d'approvisionnement en énergie de l'OIA reconnaît que le succès de la logistique du transport lourd dépend souvent d'une excellente planification et d'une exécution minutieuse. 

Creativity and adaptability remain critical to any plan, whether it be oversized power plant equipment or sustainable energy infrastructureOperations teammates regularly handle both in-gauge cargo, such as full container loads or general cargo air freight, as well as out-of-gauge (OOG) or oversized cargo, via breakbulk shipping. OIA develops route plans, method statements, and risk assessments so that all potential scenarios are considered, and so that plans remain adaptable during the shipment journey. 

Our personnel don’t just overcome problems; they anticipate them!

OIA’s supply chain energy personnel work to overcome bridges, narrow roads, and countless other obstacles, always prioritizing the safety of all personnel, cargo, and equipment involved in your shipment. Plus, our company’s wide-ranging network scope allows us to scale supply chain energy solutions in tandem with customers’ business growth.

OIA is also a regular finalist at the Heavy Lift Awards, an industry event that highlights the project cargo supply chain, demonstrating that we’re ready to become your trusted supply chain partner wherever your business may operate.

Foire aux questions (FAQ)

​What types of energy projects require specialized heavy-lift logistics?

​Large-scale projects such as offshore wind turbine installations, grid modernization, refineries, and power generation plants often involve transporting turbines, transformers, risers, compressors, etc. This requires tailored lift plans, engineered load-outs, and multimodal routing across ports, rivers, and constrained road networks.

​What’s the difference between standard energy cargo and out-of-gauge (OOG) cargo?

​Standard cargo fits within container or aircraft dimensional limits; out-of-gauge (OOG) cargo exceeds those limits due to height, width, or length. OOG movements typically require specialized equipment (multi-axle trailers, roll trailers), bespoke lashing, port coordination, and often non-standard permits and escorts.

​How should we choose between Ro-Ro, breakbulk, and charter options for energy shipments?

​Selection depends on dimensions, weight, origin–destination pairs, sailing frequency, and cargo sensitivity. Ro-Ro enables drive-on stability for wheeled or modular units, breakbulk suits static heavy items with crane handling, and charters provide schedule control and deck space for unique load configurations.

​What risk controls are essential for moving high-value energy assets?

​Core controls include lift studies, weather windows, rigging redundancy, shock/tilt monitoring, tamper-evident seals, custody audits, and contingency routing. For critical-path components, dual-path planning and inventory buffers prevent downstream delays.

​What’s involved in marine and route surveys for energy cargo?

​Surveys assess berth suitability, crane reach, deck strength, tidal windows, road geometry, overhead restrictions, and bridge ratings. Outputs include method statements and sequencing plans that align ports, carriers, and site teams to execute lifts safely and on time.

​What documentation is critical for cross-border energy shipments?

​Essential documentation includes commercial invoices, packing lists, certificates of origin, permits for oversize/overweight moves, hazardous declarations (where applicable), insurance certificates, and project-specific method statements. Proper harmonized codes and valuation prevent customs holds.
