  • A Tier 1 oil major requested that Pentagon PNG to fly a Solar Turbine from Lae in PNG to the Highlands of PNG. As the road from Lae had deteriorated causing extensive damage to freight travelling that route, air travel would ensure that the freight arrived undamaged at its destination. An Antonov 12 was chartered and the turbine was safely and promptly delivered to the remote Highlands location by the Pentagon Lae Team. Another great solution for executed by our Lae Team!
