Unloading a 300 meter coal bulk ship. Bucket crane with massive bucket close to the wheelhouse.
Here you see how it works when a coal bulk ship is unloaded with bucket cranes. In this port they used 3 cranes at the same time. Still it was needed with several days to offload this big 300 meter long bulk ship.
Sometimes the ship carries coal, and some times it carries iron ore.
Another video in my series of marine life and operations.

How was the discharging rate?

@ahmetsurmeneli1908 Ай бұрын

Can you give me information about the grab capacity and how many tons?

how do you manage to pick-up ALL of the coal ??

@andresteinum 3 ай бұрын

Often they lower down a wheel loader, and it scoops up the rest in one pile. Sometimes a bulldozer.

300 cubic metres of coal is 408000 Kg

I think my friend, the operator, said that the grip capacity of this machine is 40 cubic meters, not 300 cubic meters, and the load it unloads per hour.

300M is the ship length which makes it a Panamax Bulker. Thus weight of cargo maybe about 80,000MT.

Grab is probably 10MT so about 9m3. Reply below says 40m3 which would mean about 53MT of coal per grab which I don't think is correct. Biggest grab I ever saw was 20 or 25MT in Amsterdam - I was Radio Officer in UK merchant navy 1970s/1980s and was on a coal carrier ( a "collier") in Amsterdam loading coal from a much larger bulk carrier and the port was using the 20/25MT grabs. Took about 6 hours to fully load about 7,200MT of coal...

There has to be a better way. This would take days.

Grab discharge is usual for bulk coal discharge. I worked in UK merchant navy back in 1980's and watched many thousands of tonnes of coal, grain, bauxite and phosphates loaded and discharged... Maximum discharge rate Isaw was a full 7,200MT of coal discharged in 6.5Hours. Grain is sometimes discharged using suction, just like a huge vacuum cleaner - some vids on youtube.
