THE 'UNO' SALVAGE

  • Summer 2002, the Coaster UNO, laden with 2,400 tons of scrap, suffered engine failure in Germany's Kiel Canal. Colliding with a push barge and holed badly below the waterline, she capsized almost immediately partly blocking this critical waterway. Recovery team of SVITZER Salvage and Bugsier Hamburg were ordered by local authorities to urgently remove the vessel. The two-phase salvage plan involved cargo removal followed by vessel righting and re-float. Divers assisted in the process of patching the hole and having massive lifting slings inserted under the hull for the cranes. The need for speed was emphasized by the threatened congestion. The first attempt was succesful, the UNO being delivered to authorities for inspection with no unnecessary delay and without hindering canal traffic.

    Very Impressive, noticed the little baby's bathtub picture in the cabin. MOST CREWS EAT WELL, plenty of meat and ice cream. Thanks, great respect for miners of oil and minerals, all kinds of cargoes to us all. Log ships, ore, and grain go with fish. No, silly, not usually on the same ship, except in the galley. 💛❤🎶💛❤

    When these guys bring in a heavy lift floating crane it is amazing the mechanical energy they possess.I watched the Heavy Lift Hercules lift a TA&O that had sunk after being on dry dock.Hull repair had fractured.

    It's amazing what can be done with a ship like this that has rolled over or even sunk. I watched another video about navy salvage divers and how they were able to refloat sunken battleships that were sunk at Pearl Harbor. Of course there was some repair work just good enough to get them to dry docks for formal repairs. Only USS Arizona was left. Couldn't raise her. It's amazing.

  • @stevehuffman7453
    @stevehuffman7453 Před 3 lety +1

    So, was 'UNO' repaired or was she broken up and scrapped?
    At a minimum all machinery and electrical systems and electronics would have to be replaced, along with permanent hull repairs and any necessary structural repairs.
    Basically, a full re-fit/re-build of the hull, structure, and all systems would be required.
    There is always a point where repairs are not a viable option.
    It could cost as much or more, to repair and bring up to modern/current standards/codes as needed, than to replace the entire vessel.

    • @KaffiRawr
      @KaffiRawr Před 4 lety +1

      Yes, it can be. The answer isn't always black or white. It was under water for five days. Much is destroyed, but a lot of that ship can be salvaged and repaired. The longer it is sunk, the closer it gets to being salvage only. Engine and checking electronics are probably the expensive parts.

    Was there no rescue divers looking for him? It was not mentioned if anyone searched for him, just that he was missing, and authorities wanted to bring those salvagers.
    What if he had air for a few hours in there.

    With the hole being well above the water line of the empty ship, wouldn't it have been enough to empty the cargo and put it upright? Warum spend extra time and money on a patch?

    • @peterlovett5841
      @peterlovett5841 Před 5 lety

      They did roll the ship upright but because the hole was beneath the water level with the ship flooded they needed to patch it otherwise they could not have lifted the ship high enough for the water to flow out of the hole.
