How Brand New Container Ships are Cruelly Tested Before Launch

[@biconguy]

I never cease to be amazed at the ingenuity of we humans!

[@camel717]

Idk why I'm so weirdly fascinated with large machinery and ships.

[@SNRTHEROCK]

I know, me too 😅

[@mariosavva999]

Because they're fascinating feats of human achievement

Faut vraiment qu’on divise la vitesse des navires par deux. Les émissions de ces trucs sont infernales pour l’environnement.

[@Aaaaaa-pf4kj]

Its funny that even though I don't want to sail anywhere I am fascinated by documentaries about mega yachts, large ships, vessels and cruiseliners.

Nice

[@sammartindale8123]

At 6:45 the narrations states a capacity of more than 180000 teu. I don't think we have riched that size of vessel yet😂😂😂

[@Croco140]

C’est 18000 il me semble ?

What’s a ‘kwayside’? Is it somewhere near the quayside?....

[@heinedenmark]

I think we have reached the upper limit of how big these can be.

[@fusionstar916]

Only because our ports are too shallow and too small

[@fusionstar916]

I can only imagine there will be sea trains soon

[@robertf3479]

@@fusionstar916 Very true, and many of these ships are too large to use even the new locks of the Panama Canal. It was one of these (MV Ever Given, nearly 200,000 dwt) that got out of control and grounded crosswise in the Suez Canal last year, plugging up the canal and stopping traffic through it for several days.

[@sunkings5972]

Probably getting close to how big they need to be, we could theoretically make them twice the size but that would require around twice the money and take around 50% longer to build and cost significantly more per mile in fuel. If we ever figure out safe cost effective fusion I imagine everything will get bigger... or a ton faster.

[@dennisns112]

I work at harbors for these vessels. they can easily be built bigger. But their max size is now based on external factors. these are already too big for panama canal. (CHINA - USA), but they just land west coast then. They fit through Suez which is important for china - Europe. The harbors is becoming too shallow now at 16 meters for these. Even if we could dig up all the harbors these call, then you would need bigger cranes also, and that is not neccesarily better, because its all about speed once these vessels are in harbor. it takes longer to lift to 22 meter than 18, and deeper into the hull also. Then there is also the fuel economics, which is half the reason these are built this size. they are hitting a sweetspot it seems. Also, it makes no sense to build a 40k teu vessel which is 550 meters, and 70 meter wide, if it goes really slow, but most important, if it sails half empty all the time. Currently my harbor, one of these call every week, with 6000 lifts total. Just my 2 cents

[@blgsukram3214]

Its not a dry dock its an auxiliary floating drydock. They are not the same. One floats one gets filled with water

Your “first container ship” was a tanker

[@afd1959]

Cruelly treated? This is a construct right? Not a living creature?

[@dominicjohn8954]

The correct pronunciation of 'quayside' is 'keyside', not 'kwayside'

[@robertandersson3713]

Hmmm. Less than three minutes talked about how the ships are tested. The rest is a documentary about container ships. This is NOT a documentary about testing witch the header imply.

[@NoNORADon911]

''Cruelly'' lol

[@garydonnison3836]

one hundred and eighty thousand teu`s ?? fact check, i think you mean eighteen thousand ......get it right

I thought I had mis-heard that.

[@עומריאחמד-כ8כ]

Ok you can move please ,thanks

Got to be careful with those 'kway sides'.

[@karlwest8944]

Your audio is substandard. I find the background music distracting to the point I don't want to watch.

[@anthonysullivan2744]

I have to agree karen!

[@barrysrcdump3557]

Me too, it's too loud and irritating.

[@1950harleycharley]

Yep. Irritating

[@arjanv.berkel878]

I find the extremely long pauses between speaking very annoying, makes the video too long and doesnt hold in my attention at all

[@KingSpriteOSRS]

Bye then bozo

[@dennisns112]

was mentioned in video that modern ultra large container ships have a TEU capacity of more than 180.000. That is incorrect. Max is a little more than 24.000 right now at time of writing.

[@vindyakelum90]

Awesome

[@gregersnielsen2797]

Why do they still build big ships in steel. Big warships and aircraft are build of composits.

[@dennisns112]

I would think atleast compared to warships, Cargo vessels have a need to keep costs down, which warships probably does not prio, they prio armor capabilities? I believe steel must be very cheap compared to composits.

[@CATASTEROID934]

Steel is cheap, abundant and available everywhere and the methods to handle and work the material are mature and cheap, there's no real need to reduce weight, radar/sonar profile, armour performance on a cargo ship. Commercial shipping is all about economics and a massive vessel made of aluminium or composite materials would be more expensive than an identical vessel of steel while providing little benefit.

[@darklord1134]

What's cruel about it? 😂

[@Aaaaaa-pf4kj]

I was wondering that as well

[@roconnor01]

180,000 TEUS ??? No, 25,000TEUS.

[@charlemagne8764]

She meant 180,000 DWT I presume

What excellent video filming! The pace of the narration is smooth and wonderful. Thanks for the educational experience.

If you are going to do a video on a maritime subject you need to pronounce maritime terms correctly. “Quayside” is pronounced “key-side” not “Kway-side”

[@richardmoss5934]

11:00, sorry lady but quay is pronounced kee!

[@TheEathenFaust]

Did you account for the salinity in the body of the water used for the simulations?

[@jessehachey2732]

No, they left that out to chance 😂🙄 They figured, hey, let’s just find out after millions invested if salinity was factored into the design 😂🤦🏼‍♂️

[@dark12ain]

That don't make no sense how huge these ships are, I'm already afraid of huge large ships but seeing these in person I'd faint 😅

[@stevenwells6292]

I clicked on this because I wanted to see how you can be cruel to an object. Well I watched it and I feel so badly for the container ships in our world. Who would have know how badly abused they are.

[@davemeeks8109]

I didn't see refers. How do they transport fruits, vegetables and meats on a vessel like that without losses.

[@robertf3479]

Refrigerated containers just like the trucks and railcars you see ashore.

[@TheChiefEng]

Actually, you do see reefer containers at 11:38 to 11:40 in the clip. What this crewmember is checking is a reefer container. Depending on the type of vegetables, fruits, seafood etc, different type reefer containers are used which can keep the contents at sub-zero (centigrade) temperatures or up to the optimum temperature for fruits such as bananas etc.

[@davemeeks8109]

​@@TheChiefEng I see nothing that indicates that portion going to containers up on the deck.

[@dennisns112]

Reefers atleast on Maersk vessels are under deck. you see these vessel have 11 high on the deck, but also 11 high containers under deck. and all the power required by reefers is under deck, which protects it from the weather outside. Additionally, on Maersk reefers sailing on Maersk vessels, the reefers are watercooled unlike other shipping lines. This means that they connect power from the vessel, but also the cooling water in the containers is connected to the vessels cooling system, to optimize energy consumption. Extremely nice system

[@CATASTEROID934]

Refrigerated containers that have integral refrigeration/freezing equipment that is hooked up to the vessel's power generation via large cables to help keep some types of perishables fresh, some types of fruit also may be treated with certain gases or chemicals that block the action of plant hormones that advance ripeness. Generally some attempts are made to store bananas separately from other fruit as they emit ethylene gas which is a plant hormone common to many species of fruiting plants that accelerates ripening and perishing of other types of fruit- you'll find putting bananas in your fruit bowl makes pears and other fruit spoil quicker.

[@ugnbugn]

180,000 TEUs? Rubbish. The largest right now in 2023 have a capacity of just over 24,000TEU. Nice video, and very informative, but please get your basic facts straight.
