Laser rust removal

fucking wild man, I wonder what would be used now like lasers

Yes ...we absolutely can lift the 1000 ton baalbekstones 😊, indeed jawdropping. Ps ( saipem , micoperi, Thialf are just Unreal) ❤

still standing on the same place doing her job perfectly 20 years later

I am confident the engineers have taken all that into consideration!

Now most of them are either Norwegian or Indian. Not many brits left

​@@Fredrikbjerk The Brits were instrumental in the beginning. They helped Norway get started.

@@Ebb0ProductionsNorwegians vastly improved working practices, conditions, projects on time, little or no reworking & brits became surplus from the normally monopolised trades & engineering for offshore. Worked on the GT (one & only gas turbine generator) a few times post offshore I found the Norwegians far better to work with than the Teeside Mafi who I then had the misfortune to work with in Russia offshore. One comment indicated Indians, never saw any of those folks.

Your talking about the Troll A documentary, it's on youtube as well. The Gullfak C is seen above is actually a different oil platform, but both are incredibly massive. The Troll A is the tallest object ever moved on earth and sometimes quoted as the heaviest as well, but the Gullfak C is actually the heaviest, though not as tall. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZaVZ4iubrZ3apY en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tallest_oil_platforms

That must have been Troll A.

centimeter by centimeter

Have you heard about "LCA", aka Life Cycle Analysis? Of course there are emissions during production, anything else is impossible. The question is how much time it takes for the project to "break even".

This is a misperception. Concrete has a much lower carbon footprint than steel pr. weight unit, and comparing a concrete spar towards a similar structure in steel gives a much larger footprint for the steel structure. However, since a large volume of construction projects world-wide (onshore and offshore) are built in concrete, the CO2 footprint from cement production is a fair portion of the worlds total footprint. This is due to the considerable volume. The benefit of concrete structure are also that they are easier to construct locally - and hence avoid long distance vessel transportation.

@ 9:50 into the video they show a process being done with some sort of plasma blasting or something like that. Do you or he know what it's called?

They got it done

You probably dont give a shit but if you guys are stoned like me atm you can watch all of the new movies on Instaflixxer. I've been watching with my girlfriend for the last days xD

@Van Anthony yea, have been watching on instaflixxer for since november myself :)

It still is
