![]() The largest semi-submersible crane ship in the world left for the North Sea this morning at 10:00 a.m. On Friday, March 20, the Port Authority will let you know what time the ship will arrive in the Calandkanaal Departure of the Sleipnir To protect the health of Heerema’s onboard crew during the COVID-19 (coronavirus) outbreak, no visitors are permitted to visit the vessel. Welcome to Sleipnir Viking Ship We are honored that you have come to our shipyard and hope you will enjoy your stay here, and also tell us what you think. The vessel is due to depart at the end of March for the first of several jobs. By using Sleipnir, Heerema is working on cleaning up retired drilling platforms in the cleanest possible way with their use of emission reducing LNG. Industry is not the only sector where Sleipnir’s name was used. Time and again, between 18, Norwegian Royal Navy named some of its ships after Sleipnir. Some Norse warships were named after the steed of Odin. The vessel arrives to prepare for future decommissioning work across the North Sea. As a magnificent creature of Norse mythology, Sleipnir surely was a source of inspiration for Scandinavian people. Sleipnir arrives following a successful project execution in Trinidad, having already worked in Brazilian and Israeli waters. Alongside, the ongoing Shore Power Caland Canal project in collaboration with Eneco to provide 100% renewable energy to Heerema vessels that moor in the Port of Rotterdam. Heerema actively invests in sustainability measures, most recently trialing alternative fuels on Thialf, a semi-submersible crane vessel with a 14,200 metric ton lifting capacity. What is especially unique about Sleipnir is that it has 'dual fuel' propulsion and can, therefore, run entirely on the emission-reducing fuel LNG.

LNGĭue to Sleipnir's two large streamlined floats, the vessel can sail relatively quickly (on average, twenty kilometers per hour) with limited fuel consumption. The worlds largest dual-fuel (LNG and MGO) semi-submersible crane vessel built by Sembcorp. This ability makes it suitable for the largest offshore jobs, such as building wind turbines at sea, dismantling old platforms, or constructing the most significant offshore structures. The semi-submersible vessel has two cranes onboard, each capable of lifting 10,000 metric tons. As equally impressive as its mythical namesake, the vessel has already broken lifting records for crane vessels with a 15,300 lift in September 2019.
