JL Transport Specialist
This fine and rugged Scania G 500 belongs to JL Transport Specialist from Singapore (SG). The Scania is seen here travelling with a 2-axle low loader, loaded with a drilling rig.
The truck is a Scania G 500 with 6x4 drive. The truck is powered by a Scania DC13, a 13-litre 6-cylinder diesel engine with an output of 368 kW (500 hp).
Behind the first axle, the exhaust silencer, AdBlue tank and a storage box are mounted. Behind the cab, a heavy frame is mounted to protect the cab.
Being hauled is a 2-axle Kim Eng Seng low loader with rigid axles. This trailer may weigh a maximum of 97.2 tonnes in total and has an unladen weight of 15.1 tonnes. This leaves a payload of 82.1 tonnes.
On this side, the battery and second diesel tank are mounted behind the first axle.
The load on the low loader is an IMT AG 270 drilling rig with a total weight of approximately 71 tonnes.
The drilling rig is 18.35 metres long, 3 metres wide and 3.77 metres high.
A fine combination from JL Transport Specialist!
