![]() This high-tech hub for natural gas production in the Danish North Sea, 225 kilometres off the coast of Jutland, will have a total weight of over 35,000 tonnes and up to 54 metres in height. Notably, the Sleipnir broke the world-lifting record with the Leviathan topside 15,300 metric ton lift in September 2019.Īfter the installation of two bridges and one flare, the Tyra II project will be completed and should start producing gas in 2023/24, after over 10 years of construction. The vessel has broken several lift records since 2019. The vessel, which measures 220 metres in length and 102 metres in width, is also the world’s most sustainable semi-submersible crane vessel. The 17,000-tonne lift is still under the Sleipnir’s max lift capacity of 20,00 metric tonnes, as it has two cranes of 10,000 metric tonnes lifting capacity each. Also, thanks to an ideal weather window, it was completed four days ahead of schedule. It was executed less than 24 hours after the 47-metre-tall module’s arrival at the field site from Batam in Indonesia. In Spain, Titan LNG together with Anthony Veders’ vessel (that will pass through Suez Canal) will again supply Sleipnir.This lift, which was performed for TotalEnergies and its Danish Underground Consortium Partners, has been in the works for years, with Heerema and TotalEnergies collaborating closely. A jaw dropping strong and big semi-submersible vessel, ordered by Heerema Marine Contractors (Leiden, The. Shortly after adding Coral Fraseri to our fleet we have already mobilized her in the small scale LNG market, which underlines our strong position and commitment in supplying the maritime industry worldwide sustainable solutions for LNG as marine fuel.” Sleipnir will now set sail for Spain, rounding South Africa’s Cape of Good Hope. The largest dual-fuel crane vessel in the world. Jan Valkier, CEO of Anthony Veder says: “We are excited by serving Heerema’s Sleipnir with this LNG bunkering operation, in cooperation with Titan LNG, and look forward to many more. And look forward to supplying Heerema with more LNG in the future to fulfil our mission of helping to lower harmful emissions from the marine sector”. I’d like to thank our partners Anthony Veder, SLNG and Pavilion Gas for their support in this Dutch Singaporean co production. It was particularly appropriate that Sleipnir would perform the decommissioning work as it is the world’s most sustainable SSCV.

Heerema’s Crane Ship Champion in 1971 load testing the new crane. The involvement of a second Dutch company, Anthony Veder, makes this maiden voyage extra special”. We are very pleased to work together with Dutch Company Titan LNG, since it provided us with good solutions for bunkering, in Singapore as well as in Spain. This specific project of bunkering LNG is proof of this ambition. It shows that we act sustainable because we want to. Sleipnirs’ design clearly showcases Heerema’s dedication to sustainability beyond simply compliance. Sustainability is an integral part of HMC's identity, embedded in our daily work practices. Our LED lights and shore power electricity are only a few examples of Heerema’s ambition in this area. No other vessel has such numerous features. Koos-Jan van Brouwershaven, CEO Heerema: “Not only is Sleipnir the world’s largest and strongest vessel, it is also first of its kind as far as sustainability goes. Titan LNG has chartered a ship owned by Anthony Veder, also Dutch, thus resulting in a unique Dutch cooperation. Heerema has selected Dutch company Titan LNG to help in this undertaking. Since LNG is not yet obtainable worldwide, Heerema is the first to perform an LNG bunkering in this area of the world. The last two days bunkering of LNG took place 12 miles off the coast of Indonesia. It has the strongest pair of revolving cranes and also is the world’s first crane vessel with dual-fuel engines running on MGO and LNG, dramatically reducing harmful emissions. This unique vessel is the largest crane vessel yet built. Sleipnir is designed to work on large offshore projects such as installing and removing jackets, topsides, deep-water foundations, moorings and other offshore structures, such as windmills. Sleipnir, the world’s largest and strongest semi-submersible crane vessel (SSCV) was built in Singapore and will set course for Spain. This week, Heerema’s newest vessel Sleipnir will begin her maiden voyage. ![]()
