BMI managed the end-to-end export of two over-dimensional coil tubing units from Houston, TX to Umm Qasr, Iraq.
Our team coordinated permitted heavy-haul transport from the supplier to our Houston warehouse, completed secure transloading to flat racks, applied blocking and bracing per U.S. Coast Guard and National Cargo Bureau guidelines, handled all export documentation, and delivered the cargo to the Port of Houston for seamless vessel loading.
