John S. Connor, Inc., a full service logistics company established in 1917, has recently completed the shipment of a dredge/booster barge for Sokimex Group, a multi-divisional global organization based in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Sokimex will use the equipment for dredging operations in the Mekong River so that the river can accommodate more vessel traffic. Sokimex acquired the dredge/booster barge from Renda Dredging Company. The equipment weighed 1,135 tons, making it the heaviest shipment ever handled by John S. Connor in its 90 year history. It was so large and heavy that the dredge and barge had to be separated into two sections so it could be shipped. After the equipment was separated, the dredge alone weighed 610 metric tons and was enormously bulky; 107-ft. long, 51-ft.
