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!

What a beautiful MACHINE, would love to climb and wander around it for a couple days...

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!

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 saw it when it arrived in GIB... it was amazing. And it really looks like a X-MAS tree at night.

SIMPLY INCREDIBLE...WOW...😮😳 WHEN YOU GOT TALENT THIS IS THE RESULT!!!

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 !!

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.

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

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?

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

that is one proper big crane, what a tool....

Great video of it...!!

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.

Any video of inside the main crane control room?

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.
