Massive LNG Absorber Shipped to Malaysia

Successful transport of 1,480t absorber for biggest LNG plant worldwide in Malaysia. 1,480 tons and a high center of gravity made the transport of an absorber from the Malysian Bintulu port to the Petronas LNG production site a challenging task. Due to the unprecedented tilting stability of the Scheuerle SPMT, the load was transported to the production site safely, despite difficult road conditions and turns. Limited ground resilience made the transport even trickier, a problem solved by side-by-side coupling of 2x24 axle lines of SPMT.
