@@johnallen7807 Perhaps the shipbuilders should have to plan for end-of-life by investing in proper dismantling facilities with globally accepted standards, and then employ those workers with fair pay and safe working practices.
It has been proposed but given the corruption in places like India and Bangladesh do you really think it would work unless the yards were Western owned? Then those yards would be undercut by local ones not having the same standards.@@Spookyb329
I remember working on this ship for two years.. She come up the Tyne back in 1995 as a tanker called the Dorset.. Then made in to oil production vessel.. I always remember when it left the Tyne.. Because it left few days after lady Diana sadly past away back in 1997.. Good memories back in the day..
Great video sequence: Floating, loading and placed on the keel block on the floating barge, using crawlers to transfer from barge to shore considering tide condition, and then placing back on the keel blocks for further processing for dismantling and recycling.

She will find something to complain about no problem like it's too far away from the benefit office for her to sign on and then protest....or the ships colours don't match the dungeries she is wearing..

This would be far better without emotionally manipulative music. Just show footage and the actual stuff. This video also told nothing about the actual recyclint process. Pretty useless, not fully, but mostly useless
I remember when it come up the Tyne back in 1995.. Worked on it till it left in 1997.. It was called the Dorset... Good memories.. Was a another ship same called the dagmar & that was made in to oil production vessel aswell..
This is the way it should be done .. instead of running it up on a ocean beach in a third world no safety country for disassembly…
Agreed, on the other hand those workers need the jobs more than we do, why do you think so many try to come to Europe?

👍👍👍
must be the cleanest shipbreakers yard on the planet
And the most expensive one...

thats a wrap
nice shoto guys, you all really came through
now we can get back to using chld labour in Alang
Have visited 3 shipbreaking yards as a tourist in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh. Greetings from Australia😅.
I didn’t see any recycling operation.
Great video sequence: Floating, loading and placed on the keel block on the floating barge, using crawlers to transfer from barge to shore considering tide condition, and then placing back on the keel blocks for further processing for dismantling and recycling.
I doubt it financially beat the Indians
India is running out of cheap labour, especially now 150 thousand have moved to the UK this year alone
Yes, but this costs less.
Way too much prep time, and staff, and drive wheels.

This is so amazing....awesome you guys....keep it up
Impressive. Greta is going to love this. 😂

The other guys just drive the boat up on land and start taking it apart. Pretty expensive where are you guys are doing
I bet the cost of that was record breaking too
20,000ton×1000kg
20,000,000kg
÷748axle
213,368kg ÷ 2 axle
13,368kg 13 ton per
wheel tire axle
They should have showed how it’s done in India and the other none let’s just say unclean countries.
...hindu guy in slippers with a torch, knee deep in oil mudd: "hold my tea"!
it's called "chai" in india. At least where I visited. :)
There's places where men do this on the beach, smoking a cig and wearing sandals
what 5% is non recycleable
the pornography found in the crew's quarters. They're all stuck together somehow.

Worked on the conversion of the Curlew from tanker to FPSO start to finish then a few trips offshore on her.
I remember when it come up the Tyne back in 1995.. Worked on it till it left in 1997.. It was called the Dorset... Good memories.. Was a another ship same called the dagmar & that was made in to oil production vessel aswell..
Hi everyone I worked on the Curlew for 12 years great times best wishes to all that where there with me Kev (gadge )
