How we solve?
The construction and delivery of 34 massive pressure vessels (bullets) used for LPG storage and destined for the Barra do Dande Ocean Terminal in Angola required extensive technical expertise and creativity in finding the best solution for the client. This project, highly significant for Angola’s energy sector, faced major challenges, including ensuring the construction quality of the bullets, meeting deadlines and costs, and — one of the most complex factors — safely transporting all 34 units from China, where they were built, to Angola using semi-submersible vessels.The project’s arrangement was unprecedented and innovative in the market, considering the type of transport chosen, the quantity and size of the bullets, and the long maritime journey. Horiens played a key role in this dynamic and complex process from the very beginning, tasked with mapping risks, assessing them, and leading negotiations with the insurance market. Our goal was to secure market acceptance under competitive conditions while ensuring high-quality insurance policy coverage.
