Refueling Ships at Sea

- Replenishment at sea or underway replenishment is a method of transferring fuel, munitions, and stores from one ship to another while under way. First developed in the early 20th century it was used extensively by the United States Navy as a logistics support technique in the Pacific theatre, permitting US carrier task forces to remain at sea indefinitely.

Spent my time in the Navy on the bridge of non-nuclear carriers. We would often take fuel from tankers, but we also provided fuel to our escorts when necessary. the ship providing fuel holds a steady course and speed, and the ships receiving fuel simply follow to stay on station. It's a very precise maneuver for the bridge crews on both ships, and in particular for the helmsman. You really get to the point where you can feel the ship wanting to drift, and can correct before it does. You give it a few degrees rudder against the drift, bring the rudder back, and if you're good, the gyro never moved.There is also a distance line between ships with marking and lights (for night time unrep), which gives the Conning Officer a visual on drift and speed. It's great stuff.
I've been on the bridge wing on both sending and receiving. I was conning officer on CF Adams in the Med in lifeguard station. The ship alongside the oiler was preparing for hiline personnel transfer. Standard procedure is to send the chair over and back before the actual transfer. The chair was going over smoothly until the sending ship lost steering and did a 90 degree turn (fortunately away from the receiving ship). the chair went straight up and back down into the water. Needless to say the transfer was cancelled.

Watched the series on the conversion of the Asterix. Davie did a great job, and for a relatively small Navy Canada does a helluva great job!
Did a "Westpac" on Connie, in the 70's... was NOT a coffee drinker, so the fresh milk re-supply was a Godsend ! (have NOT drank 'kool aid' since that cruise ! lol ) .Yes , the fresh fruit also helped make life a little more bearable as well... that ...rarely, if ever, gets mentioned on these vids. I was an "Airdale"... so it was our turn to watch others work their butts off, for a change ... & they DID, during these vital transfers. THIS is one of those events in life that has changed little, if any, from the decades ago, when I experienced it. Thanks for your service sailors ! 👍

Nothing beats the feeling of a merchant marine vessel coming up your port side with heavy metal blasting through speakers in the dark of night. Then they would shoot off flairs as the Thunderous Rips of whatever song they played (mostly Metallica at the time) started and you could see everyone light up their MK1s and we would follow suit. FFG-61 Ingraham was my ship. Good times
Stunning Footage! The amount of man hours that must've taken to make ships manoeuvre in such turbulent water to perform such task smoothly.
Polyethyleneglykol This brings back so many memories.
My entire Navy career was on a Supply ship .
Exciting days they were .
Happy Holidays to you ( I just subscribed to your channel to show support- you are so invited to my channel as well).

Polyethyleneglykol I concur, beautiful to see 🇺🇸 men and women hard at work protecting us all day and night! THANK YOU US NAVAL 🙏 💗
Stand by for shot lines!
I’m from kosova and thank you USA for helping as i love Amerika
Operational Specialist here. On board USS SEATTLE AOE-3. FAST COMBAT SUPPORT SHIP. 2 MED cruises 1971-73. Great memories!
We just to play jimmy Buffett songs during underway replenishment.. I loved it all. Those were fun times.
I’m from India and Thank you to Canadian Navy - MV Asterix to do the refueling with F49 (Sahyadri)!
Brings back memories of some hard work. I served on a combat supply ship 72 - 75 in the Mediterranean.
Congrats randy im just jobless in africa
Same here. USS SEATTLE AOE-3.
70-73, OS-3/ECM.
การส่งกำลังบำลุงเป็นสิ่งสำคัณมาก.. กองทัพหากไร้สิ่งนี้แล้วถึงกับแย่จิงๆคับ
Sure a far cry from the unreps on the minesweeper I was on.
No automatic tensioners, no plug in fuel rigs, all handed manila lines at 80 feet between ships.
A requirement every 3 days during Market Time Operations off Vietnam in 1968.
Done this many many times between 1977 and 1983 .. dangerous yet sorta fun in a odd way
I was on 4 oilers during my navy career uss caloosachee,uss Detroit,uss Kalamazoo and uss Arctic as a storekeeper and help out alot during these replenishment good times and alot of work
Caloosahatchee 66-68
USS SEATTLE AOE-3 HERE. 70-73
OUT OF NORFOLK. OS-3/ECM.
Beautiful! Absolutely beautiful. I was on the Caloosahatchee from 1981 to 1985. It was a WWII Oiler that felt like a WWI Oiler. I was never able to masturbate more than once a day on that dirty old POS. If I had been stationed on this masterpiece, I probably could have gotten off 2 or 3 times a day. BTW Larry Linville was my hero when I was growing up. I just wish that Ferret face had worn the dress instead of Klinger.
Honestly a very good job. Good work.
My Grandad, the third engineer, on oil tankers, regaled me with his accounts of at-sea refuelling during WW2. It was all in black and white then, obviously. Nice to see it in colour at last.
It takes a lot of a training to manuever and stay course in the refueling evolution...good job
Think that either DP system works or something like this.
Helmsman, mind your helm!!!!!
A great, versatile Canadian Navy ship. Made in Québec at Davie Shipyards.
Yeah by awarding themselves the contract, pretty entitled behavior
I miss being out to sea and doing all of the fun exercises. #USN 💪🏾💪🏾
Itoy Walker I miss it to USNSeabee

Been there done that. I see a lot of line handlers on that refueling station wearing gloves. When we did it wearing gloves was a big no no because, believe it or not, it was a safety hazard. Get a line caught up while wearing gloves and a person would either lose a hand or get pulled over the side before you could get the gloves off. Emergency breakaways were pretty cool but sucked for the crews on the oiler because when they slacked the span wire, we pretty much tripped the pelican hook and threw their rig into the water.
I remember the same from 40 years ago. That was the US Navy, though, other navies other rules.
Was on USS Canesteo it was a wild and crazy time. 77 to 80.
Was there doing it. AMAZING
From 1970 to 1983 I refueled on a LPH-12,DD-863,FF-1075 and a DD-944. I was a MM.Stood UNREP IN Aftersteering on two and engine room on two.Luckily,we never had any problems during unrep…
I recall this many times, day and night
spent 3 years on tanker west PAC each refueling was an experience always a dangerous time the new tankers are nothing like I was on AO22
Doing the dance! 🕺
That ship on the portside is an Indian Navy Shivalik class frigate. I like its design, but I like the design of its follow on class: Nilgiri class, even more.
VERY impressive. Didn't know that such a thing existed.
This is the first time I've watched this whole process. Throughout, I imagined this would have been familiar to my grandfather. He commanded USS Passumpsic (AO-107) in the Pacific during the Korean war era.
More videos of the canadian armed forces please.
The emergency decoupling drill was pretty cool. Fun fact there's a Gunner's Mate at every refueling sponson with an explosive wire cutters in case of emergency.
That would have been useful when my daughter was a teenager. You'd only need to demonstrate it once. Muwahahaha
Awh the good ol’ days....
Thank you for your service, from 45th Chairborne.
I was on an AOR-6 USS Kalamazoo an Ammunition Oil Replenishment ship in the late 70's an early 80's I worked on the Jet Fuel Rig it would be an 8 hour along side replenishment great fun lots of crazy unecessary dangers but constant training and safety paid off no one hurt very much at least.
I was on a Frigate (formerly Destroyer Escort) in the late 1970's. When working up for deployment the ship was out on five to twelve day exercises with a week in between for six months. At least every other night we did a refuelling unrep. Not so much that we needed fuel but practice, practice, practice to make it second nature.

But dont miss bering sea...
This is so cool.
Very good work. Greeting from Ukraine!
Thinking about y'all during this time. Best wishes from the USA.
During fueling ops, I saw a dolphin jump over the fueling line.
Is that a sailor nosh*tter?
Ist time i see this refueling while underway too risky keepsafe.
Tenia que ser un barco chileno jaa saludoa
1:31 mppsssss ahhhh oh yeah ahhhhh kimochi
Upreps, getting supplies on board while ship moving,everyone had a part.✝️
They need Matter antimatter transfer protocols.
@ 1:30 how a mommy and daddy ship make a baby ship
Chilean Navy!! Yeahh 👍💪
Ooh nice.
Cool!
deadly3652 are you a sugondese?
The US Navy and USAF refuel underway or inflight, If the US Space Force (USSF?) ever gets vehicles that maneuver and not just orbit they'll have to figure out underway refuelling in zero gravity. That should be interesting.
DECK DAWGS!! BM2 here. The best times even when the conditions were miserable (which seemed to be often.. haha) Spent 8 years in the Gator Navy on the USS Austin LPD4 (92-96) and USS Portland LSD37 (96-99) before being medically retired. I can't even remember how many UNREPS we did over those 8 years and I still have scars on my hands from handling lines. Gloves were a HUGE NO NO back in the day.. Loved the Video.. God Bless our troops EVERYWHERE.. BOATS OUT...

Glad we could teach these guys the fine art of replenishment at sea.Your welcome. BM1(SW)
Gooooood 🇸🇦👈🤠✌️
Skinny hose like that must take forever.
for a Frigate like the one in the video, once connected it takes about 30-45 min
The Chilean ship is an ex British Type 23 isn't it?
Yes it is sir.
Wait, that other ship is a Chilean frigate? The one on the portside is an Indian Navy Shivalik Class frigate. Makes me wonder where this refueling occurred. Most likely it was RIMPAC.
Surprised at how few sailors are wearing lifejackets while working close to the edge with the Stanchion and life lines down?
Colin Park I noticed that too .
They are wearing float coats.
They are, they are the best you see them wearing.
They begin the ritual by shooting a helpless vole across the gap?!
Disgraceful, there ought to be a law.
brother we want many more videos please
Awh fun times. Throw in a vertrep at the same time and you’re really busting ass
and they also clean the windshield? 👌
Go Navy!
Viva Chile
Ускоренная нарезка выглядит прикольно
Very impressive. Very very dangerous! The coordination between the two ships has to be spot on. I would assume.
Shelby Runyon, hey you sound Like a sugondese. Are you one?
@@_egg_2933 Nope
@@_egg_2933 you sound like a weeb, are you one?
That's during the day. Try it at night.
We once ran into the oiler during a night approach. We left our Port anchor hanging in the side of it.

Replenishment at sea
Is that peru and indian warship?
ASTERIX AND OBELIX😂😂😂
Awesome job by all ships involved
Pretty cruel throughout the whole video but also at 8:40 you know these billion-dollar warships and all our technology and what do you see there in used is a old door wooden block and tackle I mean it's pretty cool
And a line of sailors hauling a line, "heave"..."heave"..."heave" Goes back centuries and centuries.
Не понятно как они первоначально тонкий трос доставили на другой корабль.
На 22 секунде слышен хлопок. Это специальное устройство которое выстреливает бросательный конец. Видно как его ловят матросы. Затем уже с помощью него вытаскиваются швартовые тросы.
Спасибо. Все так. Теперь понятно.
У нас такое устройство называлось "линемёт".
Не было лески однажды, сняли с линемета шнур, чтобы половить треску на одной из банок. Поймали даже одного краба. Но краба - отпустили в море. Потом стало больше рыбы попадать (не шутка).
I'm curious to know just how long it takes to transfer the fuel...
a lot of things are to be considered but usualy if everything goes well it can takes 4-5 hours, but i've been on a warship where it took us 10h, bad sea state or technical issues can make it a real pain.
24/7/365. Yep! The Navy certainly does in fact SUCK!
Did that many times.
Fuel and stores (sometimes fresh water) every three days off Vietnam on a minesweeper.
All manual line handling and no automatic tensioners.
3:36 Thats chilean navy not canadian
BrokenCast the refueling ship is canadian
@@oskar_3945 Made in Québec by Davie Shipyards
It appears this was a multinational exercise.
@@Derekrmtl - looks like multipurpose supply vessel. Probably fit for rescue operations. Not bad engeneering resolve!
Think that fuel delivery pressure in not less than 150 kg/cm². Once worked with hydraulic hoses fitted similar steel bandages (hoses clamps) with 2 pair of screw bolts.
The MSC. Worst few years of my life.

Seriously Canada has a ship called "Asterix"?
Made in Québec at Davie Shipyards
Homeport on the stern of "Asterix" is Ottawa.
@@railroad9000 err... try Halifax... can't get any large ships up to Ottawa.
Barco chileno???
Im just curious, if the boat ran out of gas, will it sink?
No.
It will merely float until a spot rusts and allows water in, or the vessel is capsized by a nasty wave.
That, or the vehicle is scuttled.
Please tell me your not serious.
@@oskar_3945 im seroius
@@kleo6212 does it sink pierside? Shit really. If its pierside it's not moving and stays afloat.
@@__chevytrucks__ - or they could call for a tow.
Почему корабль не заправляют водой?
Там опреснитель стоит
Great seamanship. But why don't they just heave to?
Takes time. Cuts a few hours off the time to your destination if you just keep going
Two or three ships in close proximity bobbing around in the ocean with no directional control would probably be more dangerous than remaining in motion.
В чем проблема остановица и заправица, они же не в воздухе, бред какой то
Мне кажется так безопаснее.
В море якорь не бросить, а так легче контролировать расстояние между кораблями. Легко синхронизировать ход и дистанцию. Ну и выигрыш во времени.
......yeah
@@whysosyria1 wtf?
@@user-nr5bc3um7f IKR
I have smart idea, no need man power
Chille
Why they didnt stop to refueling the ship? Whats the reason? I think its easier when the engine is stop
If stopped, neither vessel would have helm control, so there would be no control of position relative to one-another.
The ships are veryyyyyyy vulnerable here.
If you manage to shoot that fuel pipe......hell yeah.!!!!
MUSIC LOVER Nothing will happen, yes.
No biggie smalls, it's like pumping gas into your car.
Vietnam ilove you usa
no windshield wash though, not very good service for a glorified gas station
Unrep ships do a lot, but they don't do windows.
👍
As much fun as that looks, it's even more fun at night. Ask me how I know.
How You Know?
How?
Been there, done that. And have the scars to prove it.
Been there,done that
mikekj1 hah! Many times! Going through lite sticks by the box. Haze grey and underway.
