Project Description
In Menguegue, Gabon, Audrey Construction responded swiftly to a derailment involving COMILOG’s railway wagons. In a high-stakes emergency operation, our team deployed heavy-lift equipment—cranes and specialized rigging systems—to safely extract derailed wagons and clear the tracks. Working under strict safety protocols, we restored the rail corridor’s functionality in record time, minimizing disruption to resource transport.
Scope of Work:
- Immediate deployment of technical team, heavy-lift equipment, and safety personnel.
- Site assessment to evaluate derailment extent and determine safe recovery strategy.
- Preparation of lifting zones and stabilization of wagons prior to extraction.
- Rigging and lifting of derailed railway wagons using cranes and specialized equipment.
- Removal of debris, obstructions, and damaged components from the rail corridor.
Project Highlights:
- Emergency response to a major railway derailment disrupting transport operations.
- Deployment of heavy-lift cranes, rigging systems, and skilled technical team within tight deadlines.
- Strict adherence to safety protocols to protect personnel, equipment, and rail infrastructure.
- Precision lifting and removal of derailed wagons without causing secondary damage to the tracks.
- Track successfully cleared and restored for recommissioning in record time.
Audrey Construction successfully executed an emergency railway incident recovery in Menguegue, Gabon, for COMILOG. Following a derailment, the team rapidly mobilized heavy-lift equipment and skilled personnel to safely extract and remove derailed wagons. With strict safety measures and precise execution, the rail corridor was cleared and restored in record time, minimizing operational downtime and ensuring the swift resumption of transport activities. This project demonstrates Audrey Construction’s efficiency, technical expertise, and commitment to delivering reliable infrastructure solutions under critical conditions.
