Questions about this service

How does cargo cross the Caspian Sea?

Trucks, trailers and railcars cross on RORO ferries; breakbulk and project cargo go on chartered vessels, mainly between Alat, Aktau and Turkmenbashi.

Can you move oversized and heavy cargo?

Yes, it is our main specialty. We use lowbeds up to 80 t, extendable trailers up to 65 m, modular trailers and SPMT, and railcars up to 220 t. Super-heavy units can travel through the Volga–Don canal (VDSK) and across the Caspian by vessel or barge.

Route, cargo, weight and dimensions are enough to start. We'll come back with a plan and a price.
