Laninco Lights
Up Costa Rican
Power Project
The Anglo-Costa
Rican company,
Laninco SA has
handled
approximately
1,200 tonnes of
project cargo
from port side
to the
construction
site at Las
Pailas, where
the Instituto
Costarricense de
Electricidad
(ICE) is
building a
geothermal power
station in joint
operation with
Ormat
Technologies
Inc.
The project is
part of the
Costa Rica
government’s aim
to be 100
percent carbon
neutral in power
production by
2021 and is
financed by the
Banco
Centroamericano
de Integración
Económica (BCIE).
Laninco
coordinated the
movement from
port to site of
24 heavy and out
of gauge units
of up to 65
tonnes, plus
additional
cargo, taking
into
consideration
low and weak
bridges which
are a particular
problem in Costa
Rica.
All cargo was
cleared from
port and
delivered ahead
of schedule. The
latest shipments
were the
culmination of
several months
of logistics
operations in
which Laninco
has moved around
2,500 tonnes of
cargo to the
site.
