Cargo Surveys & Logistics management – Kokkola, finland
In 2022, we provided expert cargo surveyor services at the Port of Kokkola, Finland, across multiple projects involving the delivery of wind turbine components. Our team played a key role in managing port logistics, storage layout planning, and supporting the logistics chain for these critical components from leading wind turbine manufacturers. As a marine surveyor team, our goal was to ensure smooth operations, and we leveraged modern technologies to achieve this.

Embracing New Technologies in Port Logistics Management
One of the most impactful innovations we introduced was the use of drones for aerial surveying and monitoring. Drones are a key tool for cargo surveyor operations, as they provide real-time data and enhance the efficiency of inspections. By using drones, we reduced the need for manual inspections and ensured that components were properly tracked and stored at the port.
We also utilized advanced computer modeling to optimize our storage layout planning. 3D modeling allowed us to design more efficient storage systems, preventing damage to the critical wind turbine components and ensuring smooth transportation flows. As project logistics experts, these innovations helped us predict and address potential bottlenecks before they could affect the overall project timeline.
Transforming Wind Turbine Logistics and Project Efficiency
Our commitment to modernizing the logistics process isn't just about the use of technology—it’s about revolutionizing the industry. By combining port logistics management with drone technology and computer simulations, we aim to enhance the overall experience for all stakeholders involved. This includes longshoremen, transport companies, and our clients, all of whom benefit from improved efficiency and reduced delays.
For logistics management, accurate real-time data means that transportation companies can make informed decisions about routes and schedules, ensuring on-time deliveries of critical components. This ultimately supports a more efficient wind turbine logistics supply chain.
Paving the Way for the Future of Project Logistics
By integrating modern tools and technologies like drones and 3D modeling, we are setting new standards in port logistics and wind turbine logistics. Our focus on providing seamless, efficient, and sustainable logistics solutions at the Port of Kokkola will help the entire industry thrive. As cargo surveyors and marine surveyors, we aim to streamline operations and improve the flow of information, leading to faster, more reliable service for all parties involved.
Our goal is to make the logistics process smoother, more transparent, and easier to manage, not only for the current project but also for future wind turbine logistics and project logistics operations. At the Port of Kokkola, we are proud to be at the forefront of transforming the logistics industry, setting a new benchmark for success and efficiency in port operations.
