2 OCTRA is an European company specialized in the transport of Global Project and Heavy-Lift components, as well as in any activity related to multimodal transport. We mainly assist petrochemical, offshore, civil engineering, grid and nuclear industries, based on our wide experience and market knowledge. Our key feature is based on the concept of TRANSPORT ENGINEERING that we apply to all our complex operations and gives us a unique identity in Europe as well as within the sector. For this, we relay on our own engineering department consisting of: - Civil and Structural Engineers - Naval Architects - Merchant Marines The work of this Department in the design of each operation is a unique added value in this regard. We also follow a policy of personal supervision in special operations, anywhere in the world. Our offices are strategically placed throughout Europe: Paris, Madrid, Schiedam & St Nazaire. This catalogue outlines some of the most representative operations and services offered by OCTRA. We hope it catches your attention and serves as an example of our capabilities as a transport engineering company. JUAN H. MADSEN President ALEXANDER FERRUS Managing Director

3 EQUIPMENT OF MORE THAN 1.000Mt OCTRA is specialized in the transport of heavy and project cargo loads. The services we offer below are fully adapted to this and are the result of our evolution and improvement in such a complex industry. Above all else, quality, safety, timely and accurate information, and in general a job well done define the way we do things every day.

4 TRANSPORT AND HANDLING OF HEAVY-LIFT CARGOES One of OCTRA s main services, in which we have achieved a very high degree of specialization with the support of our sister company COORDINADORA, is the transport and handling of heavy and/or large cargoes. Over thirty years of existence, the experience and knowledge accumulated in the organization and management of the transport of heavy and large cargoes (heavy-lift) has led us to be one of the best qualified companies in this activity in the international market. In the last decade we have transported a great deal of equipment with individual weights from 600 to 1500 tons Based on this extensive experience, we have developed an organization, working techniques and procedures that always seek maximum safety and reliability during the performance of the operation, and which we provide to our customers as part of the transport solutions they need anywhere in the world.

5 GLOBAL PROJECT LOGISTICS The magnitude of a project varies greatly from one customer to another, but in all cases the situation is the same: each project is of great importance to our client and this is how we treat it. Our organization, personnel and working methods are optimized to address the implementation of a project as a unique, independent job with a limited period of execution, whose main characteristics are unique to this project and will never be the same as other previous or subsequent projects. The application of this philosophy means that when we are awarded a project it is our organization that adapts to this project and the customer, and not vice versa. Most projects involve logistical coordination of very different cargo consignments, from very diverse origins to a single delivery point. All these dynamics must be coordinated with precision, safety, and by continually adapting ourselves to the changing needs of our customers. Ongoing, timely and accurate information is essential. To perform this task we have highly qualified personnel who follow a rigorous internal training programme, a global network of agents who we have selected over the years based on strict criteria of quality and reliability, we are members of the Specialized Carriers and Rigging Association and we have our exclusive management software, developed in-house, and optimized for managing projects. To this, we must add our extensive experience in Heavy-Lift Transport and our concept of "transport engineering" that we apply to major transport projects.

6 TRANSPORT ENGINEERING As a unique feature of our company, OCTRA has its own engineering department. Its main function is to plan and control the transport of heavy cargoes. Its aim is to maintain, always and under all circumstances, a very high level of safety in the operations we perform. But our engineering concept goes further. We use the term "transport engineering" to describe the process that we employ in each special transport operation. This process begins with the preparation of a specific transport plan for every shipment, through which we analyze, evaluate, calculate and optimize the most appropriate solution for each scenario. Throughout their implementation, the plan is continuously updated and all the technical information is reviewed over and over again, with special emphasis on issues such as ship stability, lashing, ground strength and support surfaces on vehicles and vessels, crane capabilities, lifting methods, and so on. The process is complemented by the direct personal supervision of loading and transfer operations to be carried out during the transport to ensure that our transport plan and calculations made are accurately followed throughout the process. Our services in this area include: Engineering studies. Technical reports. Route and/or feasibility studies. Lashing analysis and calculations. Efforts calculations. Stability calculations. Identification and correction of potential dangers. Analysis of Ro/Ro operations. Technical supervision of operations. Operation reports.

7 CONSULTING AND TECHNICAL STUDIES All of our skills, knowledge and experience are placed at your service as external consultants and/or advisors when requested by our customers. Particularly in the movement of heavy or complex project cargoes, access to the advice and opinion of an expert company from the early planning stages of the project can limit many medium and long term costs. In this way we can verify the transport feasibility of a critical component, calculate and propose design changes, analyze and study the most appropriate route, evaluate alternative forms of transport, check the strength of transport means and surfaces, identify the most suitable loading/unloading and/or handling places, make stability calculations, monitor and approve lashing calculations of third parties, and so on. Our field of action can be as wide as your needs require.

8 EQUIPMENT OF MORE THAN Mantyluoto Nairobi 1.000Mt PROJECTS AND HEAVY-LIFT OCTRA operates anywhere in the world where our customers need to move their goods, using the most appropriate type of transport for each occasion. Our experience LENGTHS andup knowledge, TO as well as our network of expert agents that we have developed over the years, gives us this ability.
