Working for 19 years with HMC. Great and proud to be part of it for since late 2017. Started up the catering and lots of challenges came across but after all it became a smooth start. All my colleagues of all departments worked with so much passion to make it possible to have the first succesfull tests and project done and currently on its way for the next!
Outstanding The way the Dutch engineering created such a beast I mean this Derrick Barge Is absolutely beyond belief... It's unbelievable.... I went for a tour Never nothing else Like her.
I sat on the top of the Rock, with my legs dangling over the edge, just a few feet from the 18 inch cannon (is it still there?) in 1971 while serving in the U.S. Navy aboard the U.S.S Cone DD866. Brought back memories. By the way, cool crane!
Quite a beast. Certainly looks luxurious inside, perhaps they should take paying visitors like a hotel does, bet there would be a huge queue to stay on that thing for a week.
wauw eindelijk eens een filmpje dat wat meer laat zien dan alleen een vlucht eromheen. -vooral de intro met die wolken over die bergkam is extra mooi, maar er zijn zowiezo weinig filpies van Thor,Balder,Hermod,Thialf en Sleipnir. in de "10 Biggest Machines in the world"-filmpjes worden ze ook nooit genoemd.
Nice video. Does anyone know if the Kolga is dedicated to Sleipnir? I saw a video of her towing Sleipnir into Rotterdam. Would make sense to have a dedicated tug for a vessel that size, as Sleipnir is not very handy. I imagine that Sleipnir has thrusters for dynamic positioning, which can also be used for transit, but would be slow.
i saw the Heerema passing the keys when i was fishing i guess it was to the gulf to do some work pictures cant do it justice how big this vessel/machine is
Why build one 20,000 ton floating crane vessels when you can build TWO for twice as much! It's insane how far crane tech has come in my half century of watching the industry...It must be awesome to work on Sleipnir...Lucky men! .. Do they stay busy year round?
The Sleipnir is self-propelled with a minimum service speed of 10 knots, with power generated by means of dual fuel engines - MGO & LNG. Station-keeping is by means of dynamic positioning (DP3) or mooring system. The vessel has 8 thrusters.
Very good video, except all explanation of what these cranes are for was missing. This company must realize that PR is the beginning and end of all business, especially in such a restricted and limited market. If this video was done with participation of the owners, they would do well to rethink the PR strategies. I wish the owners and crew good luck with this marvel of technology.

What a beautiful MACHINE, would love to climb and wander around it for a couple days...
Outstanding The way the Dutch engineering created such a beast
I mean this Derrick Barge Is absolutely beyond belief...
It's unbelievable....
I went for a tour
Never nothing else
Like her.
SIMPLY INCREDIBLE...WOW...😮😳 WHEN YOU GOT TALENT THIS IS THE RESULT!!!
I saw it when it arrived in GIB... it was amazing. And it really looks like a X-MAS tree at night.
I was in THIALF from 2008 to 2009, I'm so proud working with HMC and being a part of the history.

Wat een waanzinnig stukje techniek, om op zoiets te mogen werken, WAUW !!!
Verschrikkelijke mooie plaatjes van dat schip.
Hey, dank je wel voor je enthousiaste reactie !!
Thank you die a Power full Video i Like this Power ship 😍😍💪👍
Thanks !!
That looks impressive, bloody big👍
Quite a beast.
Certainly looks luxurious inside, perhaps they should take paying visitors like a hotel does, bet there would be a huge queue to stay on that thing for a week.
you're on the ship for a couple months or longer (or shorter), it's a home during that time and a cozy home is a nice home to get back to after work
Super mooi !!!!! Wat een pracht schip
Fantastic video of a fantastic vessel. Wow!
Thanks for the compliment !
How is the tug allowed to moor under the lifeboats?
It is not...
Any video of inside the main crane control room?
Quite the sight when I walk to/from work during the day. Looks like a Christmas tree at night.
Sorry to say she will be leaving in a couple of weeks..won’t be there at christmas 😉
I would like to know how many miles of wire rope are on the gantry.
I worked this ship more than 2 years Singapore.
Magnificent!! 😍
It makes me proud to see this
I hope mister Huisman to
Its heartbreaking to see the compagnie it collapse in Schiedam
Saw it when passed by on cruise ship Aurora the other day off Gibraltar. Its huge I have linked your vid under a instagram post I did of it.
Quite a site not?
Thanks for linking 👍
wauw eindelijk eens een filmpje dat wat meer laat zien dan alleen een vlucht eromheen.
-vooral de intro met die wolken over die bergkam is extra mooi,
maar er zijn zowiezo weinig filpies van Thor,Balder,Hermod,Thialf en Sleipnir.
in de "10 Biggest Machines in the world"-filmpjes worden ze ook nooit genoemd.
Ha, dank je wel voor het compliment.

Thanks. I don’t think Kolga is dedicated. She does other jobs as well
do these giant cranes use hydraulic cylinders?
i saw the Heerema passing the keys when i was fishing i guess it was to the gulf to do some work pictures cant do it justice how big this vessel/machine is
Awesome heavy equipment
Brilliant video,top skills in the making of it,that is amazing crane ship
Jim Wright Thanks a lot for the compliment Jim !! 🙏
Any idea where she is going next?
She’s back in Gibraltar for provisions and in a couple of weeks off to Brasil.
You can look it up on vesselfinder.com or vesseltracker.com.
I found it on marine tracker it is in Cape Town harbour
Taheera Jeena it’s in Trinidad Tobago now
Great giant vessel Sleipnir
That joker looks brand spankin new
How do you get a job on a rig like this?

No they Dock in Rotterdam in between jobs to adjust for the next job.
Or just a maintenance rond.
Great video of it...!!
I am 3 year working this vessel when it’s making 😍😍😍😍
A crane ship so powerful, it can lift a tiny 1mm chunk of white dwarf star material.
😄
وش إسم هذا المكان
كان علي فقط أن أترجم ... هذا المكان يسمى جبل طارق

I saw it when I was in Israel at Mediterranean sea lifting the leviathan platform.
Yes, that was her first job.
Master piece lifting a master piece...i was part of leviathan project...2.5 yrs in the making...damm proud how it came out
that is one proper big crane, what a tool....
how much is this crayne rently a day? do you know?
Is it self propelled
The Sleipnir is self-propelled with a minimum service speed of 10 knots, with power generated by means of dual fuel engines - MGO & LNG. Station-keeping is by means of dynamic positioning (DP3) or mooring system.
The vessel has 8 thrusters.
Netherlands best. Like Mammoet.
fine looking bit of kit. cant start to imagine what it cost to buy , or even what it costs to hire.
1 billion dollars what they paid
What job was it doing in Gibraltar ?
Andrew Rees no job there, refuelling for a job in Israel.
@@xandroneproductions9432 ok thanks for the quick response, take care.
素晴らしい wonderful ‼️
Nice view
A single sheave would take 1,000 feet of cable to reach from the highest point to the deck.... Yup... It's big.
NICE video i have also a video of the Sleipnir.
Thanks! Well show us..

Thialf 18.000 ton lifting.
Competition 16.000 ton lifting capacity.
