Apart from oversized transport, there is also great demand for lifting and installation works in various industrial and engineering projects in Malaysia. The distinct advantages of having Megalift coordinating both transport and lifting aspects are the ability to communicate with better control and offer competitive pricing. It is certainly possible given our technical and engineering capability, experienced operation teams and the involvement of expatriate consultants if required.

​Throughout the past 30 years, we have undertaken numerous positioning tasks, be it high foundations, deep, onto high-rise buildings or even the basements. Among the structures we worked with include turbines, transformers, generators, boilers, condensers and engines.

​

Lifting and installation works usually require a combination of sophisticated equipment including some rare or highly specialized instruments. In the case that we do not own them, cross-hire and collaboration with a reliable network will take place. However, we assume sole control of performance and responsibility to avoid unnecessary hassle to the client.

​Equipment: mobile cranes, gantry, crawler cranes, ringer cranes, forklifts, sky lifts, winches, jacks, skate rollers and strand jacks with the use of support materials such as steel plates, U-channels, beams, decks, concrete blocks and scaffoldings.

Barging is an integral part of heavy transport especially when over-dimensioned cargoes cannot be transported cross-country. Oftentimes, barge is needed due to restrictions of weight, length, width, and height. Under capacity bridges, narrow roads, tight 5-junctions, unmovable obstructions, flyovers, telephone wires are some constraints that road transportation may not be possible. 

​RORO (roll-on-roll-off) is the method to move cargoes seated on trailer from land to sea or vice versa. This is usually performed using a ramp at beachheads, jetties or wharves.

​Barging and RORO not only require the main facilities of barging, tugs, ramps, ballasting pumps, generators, sounding devices, lashing wires, turnbuckles, welding sets and oxi-cutters, etc. but also the precise knowledge of hydro dynamics, tidal condition, towing technique, navigation route, pilot regulation and port condition. In addition, a superb human resources team such as master mariners, marine engineers, welders and riggers are required. In this respect, Megalift takes pride in having all these ingredients for smooth execution.

​Barging is also used when ocean vessels are not equipped with heavy duty derrick or when job sites and inaccessible by ocean vessel or road.

​We handle both domestic and regional barging, to and from overseas including countries like Hong Kong, Philippines, Indonesia, Myanmar, Singapore and Thailand. Having done not less than 150 barge operations, Megalift is undoubtedly the leading specialist in barging and RORO.

​Our expertise encompasses selecting the right barge sizes, deck strength, appropriate tugging horsepower and ballad pull as well as inspection before usage and deck strength reinforcement if required.

Jacking and skidding is one of the lifting mechanisms widely used for moving large structures. It’s especially useful to move items such as transformers where they are to be positioned on a plinth. And usually in such situations, space could be a constraint. With limited space and no other viable method to lift and place the structure onto its foundation, a jack and skid method is just perfect. 

​Jack and skid runs on a series of slow, calculated, steady steps. Firstly the structure is jacked up off the trailer that it’s being transported before trudging through the distance of the dragon skids. Finally when it arrives at the right position, the reverse process will take place to jack it down onto the foundation. 

​Megalift has both the technical expertise and equipment to do so. Usually a site survey is required before we advise With more than 30 years of experience handling jacking and skidding for a wide variety of projects, we can execute these operations safely and professionally.
