The Logistics Plus Belgium team successfully transported a fully functional modular vaccine manufacturing facility from Belgium to West Africa. Our team first arranged and supervised the handling of the modules upon arrival in Zeebrugge, Belgium. The Belgium team then transferred the modules to Antwerp for loading onto the vessel to Senegal, West Africa. Due to the sensitivity of the modules, the shipment had specific requirements that had to be met.
Although Logistics Plus played a small role in the overall process, we are happy to be doing our part to get the facility up and running. The vaccine manufacturing facility will produce up to 300 million COVID-19 doses annually. Logistics Plus Global Project Manager Frederik Geirnaert commented on this project. “I’m so proud that our team could assist with a project of this magnitude. The opening of this vaccine manufacturing facility will positively impact millions of lives in Africa.”

The Logistics Plus Project Cargo team successfully transported several Naval warship engines for the ESB and T-AO programs. The two programs vary based on the type of warship and their purpose. The T-AO fleet involves large oilers, while the ESB program involves landing platform vessels. More details about each program are listed below.
ESB Program
- As part of a recent government contract, the U.S. Navy added a third ship to be constructed and configured as an Expeditionary Sea Base (ESB).
- ESB bases are highly flexible platforms that can be employed across a broad range of military operations.
- ESB engines weigh roughly 250,000 lbs. each.
T-AO Program
- The T-AO program involves new fleet oilers for the U.S. Navy designed to transfer fuel to the Navy’s carrier strike groups operating at seas.
- These oilers have the capacity to carry 162,000 barrels of oil. The vessels measure 742-feet in length.
- T-AO engines weigh roughly 450,000 lbs. each.
