Gigantisk kranskib skadet af orkan

Det næsten færdigbyggede belgiske kranskib Voltaire blev torsdag ramt af orkanen Muifa, men det lå ved kaj på COSCO Shipping Shipyard i den kinesiske havneby Nantong. Kranskibet rev sig løs fra fortøjningerne, og såvel kran som helikopterplatform blev skadet.

Det præcise omfang af skaderne er endnu ikke gjort op, men ingen personer kom til skade.

Kranskibet er næsten færdigbygget, og leveringen er planlagt til engang i dette halvår. Om skaderne vil forsinke leveringen, vides i øjeblikket ikke.

Skibets første opgave bliver at installere 277 vindmøller på Dogger Bank.

Belgiske Jan De Nul Group har kontraheret kranskibet, der er udstyret med en af de største kraner i verden. Kranen kan montere vindmøller med en højde på op til 270 meter, og møllevinger på op til 120 meter.

Danske Knud E. Hansen har været med til at konstruere kranskibet.
