Since ancient times, people have tried to conquer the water element. In their attempts, they improved watercraft and today they have something to boast about. Many ships reach truly gigantic sizes and compete for the championship of the largest. We offer a mini-rating of marine, but rather oceanic giants.

Long-term leader of the ocean expanses

By right, tankers and container ships are considered the largest ships. Until 2010, the title of "the largest ship in the world" was supertanker Knock Nevis . She was built at the Oppama shipyard in Yokosuka in 1975 and instead of a name she had only the number 1016. After launching, technical flaws were discovered and the Greek shipowners refused to accept. Long litigation, bankruptcy - and the ship has a new owner. Hong Kong tycoon Tung decided to modernize and increase the payload capacity (deadweight).

The renovated vessel with a length of more than 458 m could carry about 565 thousand tons of oil, and the name Seawise Giant appeared on board. However, its impressive size did not allow it to enter most ports and pass through the Suez and Panama Canals. In May 1986, a supertanker attacked an Iraqi fighter jet and it ran aground near the Iranian island of Larak. After that, it was repaired, changed its owners and names twice, served as a floating storage for crude oil. In January 2010, he was sent for disassembly.

Modern championship of container ships

The ship of the A.P. Corporation became the receiver of Knock Nevis. Moller Maersk Group container ship Emma Maersk . It was launched from the Lindoe shipyard in Denmark in 2006. An interesting fact is that during the final stage of construction, a fire started in the upper part of the ship. It cost several million dollars, but its consequences were eliminated in the shortest possible time.

The length of Emma Maersk is about 397 m, the width is 63.1 m. The crew of the giant is only 13 people. The carrying capacity of the vessel is about 123 thousand tons or more than 11,000 containers. If they are all lined up in a row, then its length will be 111 km. Loading can be carried out simultaneously by 12 giant cranes. Due to its impressive size, the Panama Canal was closed to the ship. His usual route: Southeast Asia - Suez Canal - Europe. In 2011, the Danish Mint released a 20 kroner coin featuring a container ship.

Further, the palm of leadership passed to the one launched from the South Korean shipyard in 2013 container ship Maersk Mc–Kinney Moller . It is named after the son of the founder of the transport company A.P. Moller Maersk Group. He became the first of 20 similar ones, its length is 400 m, the height is commensurate with a 20-storey building. Vessel speed - 23 knots. Its cost is estimated at 185 million dollars.

The Maersk Mc-Kinney Moller is capable of carrying 18,270 20-foot ISO containers and would easily accommodate the famous Eiffel Tower on its deck. The containers are arranged in 23 rows, in height: 11 in the hold and 10 on the deck. This giant is managed by a team of 19 people. The vessel also has disadvantages:

• so that the ship does not roll, the correct layout of the containers is important;
• not all ports have cranes tall enough for a full load.

Pioneering spirit - area champion

The most spacious is catamaran Pioneering spirit . Its length is 382 m, so it could easily transport 4 Statues of Liberty at the same time. The width of the vessel is 124 m. Its creators claim that it is easy to accommodate a small one on the deck. The main task of the ship is the laying of underwater pipelines (to a depth of up to 3500 m) and the transportation of drilling rigs with a total weight of up to 48 thousand tons.

The ship project was developed by Finnish shipbuilding engineers commissioned by the Swiss company Allseas Marine Contractors. It was built at a shipyard in South Korea. Its final equipment was completed at the beginning of 2015 in Rotterdam. A 600-ton crane with an outreach of 20 m and 3 x 50 tons with an outreach of 33 m are installed on the deck. The cabins can accommodate 571 people.

The ship was originally to be named Pieter Schelte after the shipbuilder Peter Schelte Heerema, who was the father of the owner of Allseas Marine Contractors. However, after the fact of Peter's collaboration with the Nazis was revealed, the name was changed under public pressure. The vessel is operated under the Panamanian flag.

Oasis of the Seas - Passenger Giant

The length of the ship is 361 m, the maximum width is 60.5 m. The distance from the highest point to the surface of the water is 72 m. The hull of the ship consists of 480 thousand parts, its total weight is about 45 thousand tons. place.

Transportation of the vessel to the point of permanent residence is associated with interesting facts:

• to pass under the Great Belt Bridge, connecting the Danish islands of Funen and Zealand, telescopic exhaust pipes had to be retracted;
• in the Atlantic, the ship reached a maximum speed of 24 knots (approximately 44 km/h).

Torpedo tubes, Moskit launchers, Uragan anti-aircraft missile system. For the first time, the Commander-in-Chief of the Danish Navy, who arrived at the main base of the Baltic Fleet, is shown the armament of the destroyer Bespokoiny.

The tour lasts more than an hour, during the breaks, Rear Admiral Nilje Wang looks with excitement at the football field, where the Danish team is desperately fighting a team of Baltic sailors.

Nilje Wang, Commander-in-Chief of the Danish Navy: “The Russian Navy is one of the leading in the world. Such visits are very important for us, the only pity is that our sailors are losing.”

The visit of a NATO ship is purely business. It is designed to develop relations with foreign armies. But for Russian and Danish sailors, the most interesting thing is sports competitions in which you can measure your strength. The football field is dirty and damp, but passions run high to the limit, the whole stock of foreign words is used.

Dan Ouetsen, crew member of the Olfert Fischer frigate: “Good team, very strong. It’s hard to play with Russian sailors, we didn’t have the opportunity to train, we just got off the ship.”

The Russian sailors are strong opponents, but they admit that it is easier to play at home. Our soldiers have been preparing for the match for more than three months and as a result they beat the Danes with a score of 6:2.

Alexei Leontiev, crew member of the destroyer Bespokoyny: “The Danes are excellent players, they both attacked and scored. We were helped by the home field and the support of our guys.”
