Heavy transport specialist Collett has successfully delivered three Enercon E-138 wind turbines to the Dragon LNG facility in Pembrokeshire, South Wales.
The project involved transporting 13 components per turbine, including 68-metre blades, as part of a complex logistics operation requiring detailed route planning and specialist equipment.
The deliveries were carried out to support works at the LNG terminal, with Collett managing the movement of oversized and heavy components from port to site. The operation required coordination across multiple stakeholders to ensure safe and efficient transport of the turbine sections.
Lee Robinson, project manager for Collett stated: “As project manager for the Dragon LNG project, I’m proud of what our team achieved in a complex built up route. Unlike many rural developments, this project brought its own unique challenges, navigating populated residential areas with heavy traffic and working closely with the local authority and roadworks contractors to safely share road space. Deliveries to a high-security industrial site added another layer of logistical complexity. The strong collaboration between Collett, Enercon, Knights Brown and Dragon LNG made the project both challenging and highly rewarding to deliver.”
Enercon’s E-138 model is a large onshore wind turbine, and the scale of the components necessitated the use of specialist trailers and escort arrangements. Collett said the project highlighted its capability in delivering major infrastructure and energy-related consignments across the UK.
The company is a regular operator in the renewables sector, providing heavy haulage and abnormal load transport services for wind, power and industrial projects.
Enercon President Region Western Europe and UK MD, Johan Terpstra added “This delivery to Dragon LNG marks an important step in bringing advanced wind technology into a complex industrial setting. With Enercon’s latest Enacelle technology, the project shows how our integrated solutions maximise the value of renewable energy - delivered safely, efficiently, and with longterm performance at the core. Once operational, the turbines will supply renewable electricity directly to the LNG terminal, working alongside the site’s solar park to enhance operational resilience and reduce emissions. Collett’s specialist transport expertise has been essential in moving us closer to making this project a reality.”
