Case Study – Oilfield Equipment Wholesaler<\/h2>\n

About the Customer<\/a><\/h3>\n

This Noatum Logistics USA (formerly MIQ Logistics) customer sells, installs, maintains and repairs pumping units for oilfield operations in Canada and the northern United States. The customer contacted Noatum Logistics USA based on the referral of another equipment provider in the oil and gas industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Oilfield<\/a><\/p>\n

Challenge<\/a><\/h3>\n

The customer suspected they were being overcharged for shipping. They were not using freight <\/span>forwarders. Instead, they were allowing manufacturers to arrange for the ocean freight shipping of the heavy equipment from China to Canada.<\/span><\/p>\n

Strategy<\/a><\/h3>\n

Noatum Logistics USA analyzed the size, weight and timing of the product being exported from China to\u00a0determine if there were opportunities at origin to combine loads and reduce the number of shipping\u00a0containers each month.<\/span><\/p>\n

Solution<\/a><\/h3>\n

Noatum Logistics USA implemented a load optimization plan, which combines smaller pumping units with extra parts from larger units. For their larger pieces, which normally shipped on flat racks, Noatum Logistics USA negotiated higher weight limits with the ocean lines. This resulted in drastically reducing the customer\u2019s container count and ocean freight costs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Result<\/a><\/h3>\n

Noatum Logistics USA saved the customer more than $24,000 on the first shipment handled for them. Estimated annualized savings are $150,000 for just one of the customer\u2019s product models. Industry expertise and product knowledge in both China and North America have contributed to smooth supply chain operations.<\/span><\/p>\n
