FRANCE-ENERGY-TRANSPORT
A giant gas turbine weighing 390 tons, is lifted from its exceptional convoy of 109 meters length and 6,65 meters large, onto a barge in the harbour of Strasbourg, eastern France on March 13, 2014.The turbine made by US company General Electric in Belfort, eastern France, travelled one week by road, before being loaded aboard a barge on the Rhine river in Strasbourg, to reach the harbor of Anvers, Belgium. From there it will join the US harbor of Savannah (Georgia), before a last rail and road trip to the General Electric test center of Greenville (South Carolina), the only General Electric able to perform tests on turbines of such dimensions.
