Well done. Concise yet easily understood. Enough time allowed to properly explain the concept and the execution of the move without any time lapse footage. Thoroughly enjoyable and understandable. Thank you.
This video has so much detail information. It's a joy to watch compared to the last video that I viewed. Congratulations for your award. More with this level of facts and information would be appreciated...
I took pictures of the two furnaces in DEC 2020 as they came into port Aransas on the back of the Mighty Servant 1. Super impressive and amazing how big everything was
Whenever gigantic and massively heavy objects need to be moved from point A to point B, you can bet it is being done by a Mammoet Moving System. I have seen Record after Record shattered over the years. Archimedes said "Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world" Today, I say "If you want to move the heaviest objects on Earth, better call Mammoet."
Thank you for making this; the pace feels just about perfect. The only thing I can suggest is to add the subtitles here rather than baking them into the video itself; that way TH-cam can automatically translate them to different languages.
Um yes hello, I was wondering if you have a domestic version available....my wife is rather difficult to move and maybe one of the is available in pink with a cup holder? You do great work
Great explanation! I am curious how this sort of plant would have been built without such heavy lift capacity. Smaller modules with lots of pipe welding done on site, I’d guess?
Most probably; modular construction of this type of facilities minimizes inclement weather delays, reduces costs and offer a safer (controlled) work environment for the workers. It all depends of the site and how complex the facility will be.
I would love to work for Mammoet they always have the most interesting projects and challenges. Unfortunately they don’t have much work for journeyman electricians. Perhaps one day I’ll have the opportunity to retrain into a more relevant trade!
This is a common approach for many North American mega-projects. Even with the enormous logistics costs, it is still much cheaper for the project to have the modules fabricated overseas than it is to construct on site. Some of the common reasons: - Much cheaper labor in other countries (India, China, etc.) - It would require a much larger work-force to stick build at the project site, meaning more camp accomodations, more paid flights, more congestion on site, etc. - Logistics costs to transport all of the raw materials for the module will also be much cheaper in some other countries. - Module fabrication yards have special equipment in place and their own storage space for raw materials that may not be available at the project site. Seems like a shitty deal for locals and in some ways it is, but to stick build everything on site may push the project budget past the point where it is no longer economically viable to even do the project.
Much easier,much less time consuming, much less manpower to build in modules majority of jobs are t&m but naturally they'd rather take less time. Last project i was on we moved seven furnaces this way.
Very impressive, but I am surprised that the modules were not constructed in-situ instead. I guess there must have been a good reason for constructing them far from the site.

Normally, the load is already on supports that lift it clear from the ground. After which, the SPMTs drive under them. SPMT axles can hydraulically lift or lower, so by lifting up they take over the load and can drive away with it.
And it was still cheaper to do this than do assembly on site? Hopefully they didn't build the Boilers in China........? Never seen a land based Boiler project like this assembled off site and transported whole?
Impressive move, but why not build something so massive on site? Building a road & burying cables is not cheap. Guess free Chinese slave labor beats lazy American union labor again.
Hire a better proofreader: you used the word "precedence" when the proper form in this case is "precedent." Obviously it's a small point, but details matter; niet waar? Met vriendelijke groeten, Alan Tomlinson
crazy that the economics support transporting things this huge great distances rather than assembly on site

omg thank you for litraly speaking in english with measurements in feet and statue of liberties I can litraly never understand anyone from yourope
I agree it was really well produced, well done
We are glad you liked it!
Mo time lapse eh?
5:15 SPMT doing ~ 15mph!
@@dougaltolan3017 Slow with a reason. I prefer that to not having any idea about why they are doing what they do.
really impressed with Mammoet for moving in a Boeing 747 for comparison now that is going out of your way to make a point. good job lads
That was not a 747 though. 😐
@@MrBen527 so Mammoet doesn't know its Boeing 747's very well, its no biggie... after all...the biggest thing they move is time😉
@@nicktorea4017 No 747s moved I guess
@@MrBen527 maybe
Not for this job :-) but yes we already did it in The Netherlands th-cam.com/video/Pvd6LyFpSxQ/w-d-xo.html
Proud to be part of that project as one of the rodbusters that build most of those foundations. 💪
Mammoets best video yet !
Lots of detail/facts and video.
For fans of heavy lifting this video is like a documentary, not an advertisement.
Thanks Michael, glad you like it!

When things are done the right way and planned right. Awesome work
Congratulations and Thank You to all of you for the video.
Tip notch video. Plenty of great detail.
Much appreciated!
Always enjoyed watching you guys move those, splitters, furnaces, and reactors. Incredible stuff
Glad you enjoy our projects!
Fantastic move as always.

Do you know where they were made?
I would love a Furnace for Christmas 🎄

@@MammoetHeavyLifting Thank you for post. Some beyond amazing accomplishments no one will beat.
You did a great job with this.
It seems strange to me that some how it is cheaper to do it this way rather than build them on site.
Thats the new Exxon plant in Sinton Tx. I wanna know where Exxon built the modules overseas.
Great job again guys!

It blows my mind that it was cheaper to build overseas and transport than to build on site.
I would love to work for Mammoet they always have the most interesting projects and challenges. Unfortunately they don’t have much work for journeyman electricians. Perhaps one day I’ll have the opportunity to retrain into a more relevant trade!
WOW!!!!!! thats incredible!!! i can't believe they built a 4mile long heavy haul road
I would like to thank all the gas companies for supporting the purpose
Wait a minute. WHY was this plant made overseas in modules in the first place?
This is a common approach for many North American mega-projects. Even with the enormous logistics costs, it is still much cheaper for the project to have the modules fabricated overseas than it is to construct on site. Some of the common reasons:
- Much cheaper labor in other countries (India, China, etc.)

@@Natural11001001 Incredible. "I work at a factory factory". Makes sense though, sadly.
Does anybody know why they just couldn't build these Furnaces on site?
Much easier,much less time consuming, much less manpower to build in modules majority of jobs are t&m but naturally they'd rather take less time. Last project i was on we moved seven furnaces this way.
Where were the furnaces etc. built to have to be transported to Texas by sea?
Where were the modules built
Good Dutch engineering right there
Impressive.
好專業的團隊，更謝謝拍攝影片的詳細介紹

Amazing
How much is the total tonnage of the 195 loads, in units of Great Pyramids?
Why were these units built over seas....
5:26 "precedent" not "precedence."
I have a furnace similar to this in my off-grid home.
Too bad the wind farm was nearby. Otherwise wind wouldn't be an issue!
Remarkable.
Thank you.

How was the placement done loading onto spmt
Normally, the load is already on supports that lift it clear from the ground. After which, the SPMTs drive under them. SPMT axles can hydraulically lift or lower, so by lifting up they take over the load and can drive away with it.
Great video. SPMT? Acronym for what?
Self propelled modulair transporter
What does this furnace do?
So that's where road maintenance budget goes. Would have never guessed.
Gotta love those meaningless units at 0:50. Thanks!

FAIL: Wrong airplane graphic at 5:55. Boeing 747 has 4 engines not 2, also doesn't have winglets.
Apparently everybody in the world knows what spmt is and Axle lines
In heavy lifting world yes

If you need to get it done, yes, give us a call ;-)

And who said we don't have the technology to move parts of the great pyramids today??
These guys could probably move a whole pyramid to another continent, if you had the budget.
Closed Captioning is a thing. All you have to do is click on it.
And it was still cheaper to do this than do assembly on site? Hopefully they didn't build the Boilers in China........?
Never seen a land based Boiler project like this assembled off site and transported whole?
I have never heard of a company allowing the production slowdown because of construction.
That's ridiculous. No way lightning wouldn't hit that.
Id rather see extra footage of the moving and some heavy equipment rather than the whole bit on diversity and inclusion, and happy workers
SPMT? Why don't you explain? We are all not rocket scientists
Luckily we have a great video that explains all you need to know about them th-cam.com/video/wL3YvOe0ZgE/w-d-xo.html
Hope you don't break your arm patting yourself on the back.
I don't think so we know if it ain't durch it ain't much.

Too any acronyms without explanation :(
Impressive move, but why not build something so massive on site? Building a road & burying cables is not cheap. Guess free Chinese slave labor beats lazy American union labor again.
This will use lots of crude oil byproducts while life making plastics. Hope dems don't cancel it.
