SVC Marine supported project cargo lashing and securing work at Dung Quat, Vietnam, for selected equipment and industrial cargo shipments.
The job involved reviewing cargo requirements, mobilizing our local team, following port operations, checking practical securing needs and keeping the cargo side updated before shipment.
Dung Quat is an important industrial and project cargo area in Central Vietnam. Cargoes shipped from this area may include equipment, machinery, steel structures, fabricated units, industrial materials and other breakbulk or project cargoes requiring proper lifting, stowage, lashing and securing before sea transportation.

Case Overview
SVC Marine reviewed the cargo requirement, mobilized our local lashing team and followed the job with port, vendor and vessel-side parties.
Project cargo lashing is not only manual work. It is part of cargo risk control. If the cargo is not properly secured, the shipment may face cargo shifting, cargo damage, vessel safety risk, insurance dispute, loading delay or rejection by the vessel’s master, chief officer or cargo surveyor.
