- 1 of 1000's being recycled by SMEDEGAARDEN in denmark after almoast 50 years in business.
The vessel ws in fully operational condition and came steaming from Cyprus on her last journey to Esbjerg - dk for being recycled after getting the contract with the owners and the governments in Norway and Denmark. All reuseable equipment has been removed to our stores before beaching her as well as all tanks are made empty and cleaned throughly so pollution is prevented. 1 of many which has gone and still loads to go away in the future... everything has a life ... and a death...
i sailed on this ship for two years when it was called Arklow River had some great times sad to see end like this
What! No kids in flip flop sandles with cutting torches in Denmark?
Sustainable
3:33 looks like the anchor chain pulled right through the anchor locker when they pulled the ship up on shore. Fascinating.
The ships"Mercator II,m/v Server,and Rhodos cement"scraps at SMEDEGAARDEN Denmark in Esbjerg.It is quite big in there and it can be only scrapped 1 by 1,it can only scrap 1 ship at a week.
wow i never knew how the scrapped ships before amazing,,,thanks for posting
Built as Milburn Carrier...had alot of history on the Kiwi Coast....remember jumping off her into Lyttelton Harbour when she was laid up for sale
then the boss comes running out and yells"it was only to have the bow thruster fixed, not bow ripped" ooops.lol
A few comments.... radar isn't running when beaching as the Vessel is completely empty for all Machinery, electrical items, oil, gas oil, hydr. oil, Chemicals etc etc etc:
We used to use torches, but hey, There has been developed Machinery and Things to help us protect the environment and protect the workers, which is our main goal as a Ship recycler.
Such a machine can do the Work which requires app. 20 good Guys each with a torch pr. day.
Steel has to be processed for their end purpose, and some makes plates, others make scrap for melting...
For some of the people online, use your intelligence and learn about the thing you comment before giving comments on something you don't know nothing about.
That goes on generally by the way
+TheSmedegaarden So you are saying that each of those machines takes the jobs of 20 men? And you think that is a good thing? Give these ships to the Third World, let them cut them up with torches, and give employment to at least 40 men per ship.

@@drServitis This is far safer. Cutting ships in India kills and injures many. And this Danish yard deals with the waste in a far more environmentally safe manner.
@@PreservationEnthusiast So hundreds/thousands in the Third World go jobless and a few already relatively wealthy Danes who have guaranteed substantial socialized unemployment payments get the jobs.
The ship may look operable, but this vessel, built in 1972, is from an era of primitive bulk carriers which had a variety of structural weaknesses. In the 1990s a spate of sinkings occurred, resulting in amendments to the SOLAS treaty.
Many bulk cargoes are vulnerable to moisture intrusion, and not just because of freshness concerns. Some materials including cement can become liquids when wet and destabilize a vessel. This old ship was probably corroding and just not safe to operate any longer.
Novice here with a novice question. What determines when a ship goes to a breaking yard? The cost of one of these ships I’m sure makes this a difficult decision. Thanks
Jeff DiGulio ...the life of the average cargo ship is 25 to 30 years. As a ship ages, the costs of maintenance becomes. Prohibitive something like people..lol...in my youth I worked on a Swedish freighter which was barely 20 yrs old and it was scrapped soon after...cheers🍷🇨🇦
Its the same scrap yard being used by MV Server and Wappen Von Hamburg.
quite sad...
@HelixWaffle yea i didnt think of think of that. but cant they just clean the chemicals and what not off and do what i said?
was this the milburn carrier originally operating in New Zealand ?
Yes
It has given service for 50 years, what more can you expect. What one piece of anything do you own that has lasted that long - stop whinning about everything, this is where it belongs - recycled into something new
Milburn westport from New Zealand
Wow👍
Looks like an orange monster is feeding on the carcass of a dead ship ....
Indian workers in Pakistan could dismantle that ship 10 times better and quicker than those lobster claws nibbling away the structure. I bet they used so much diesel in the process.
Yes they could but in Denmark it would be in compliance to environmental protection laws, the workers are working for a descent wage and they won't be violating OSH laws.
ever bought any acetylene?
No no no the cutting step was totally wrong way...from Bangladesh
The Indians method of cutting is more useful for recycling the big sheets of steel!
@Markorepairs Do what mate?
All those thousands of gallons of diesel being burnt fuelling those grabbers when gas axe would be much quicker and more environmentally friendly..
wondering on ....
the ramp is not really flat, easier to pull up if ramp is level and perfectly inclined.
and the use of snippers, i do not see "bins" to take away scrap metals nearby. but by commentary, seems like suspicious scrapping practice?

why wouldnt they just sink them in the ocean and create a home for lots of fish and make a good ecosystem?
I note that,even when beached,her RADAR is still running!
If I was that ship I'd be like "get me the fuck out of here! They've got friggin lobster machines!"
Hello and happy day: I inform you: The submarine Aras San Juan of Argentina was sunk on 11/15/2017 at 7:30 am by another Chinese submarine that was in espionage work and the Aras San Juan was pierced by Chinese submarine firing torpedoes at them and could not dodge it. The sinking of Russia's oscar-class submarine K-141 Kursk is the best known and remembered to date and was sunk on 08/12/2000 by another Russian submarine as they wanted to desert their crew and request political asylum and of course the Russian submarine K-141 KURS was refloated some time later but did not have a happy ending like the submarine in the movie The Hunt for Red October made and filmed in Hollywood and starring actors Thomas Sean Connery and Alexander Rae "Alec" Baldwin III. The American nuclear-powered submarines and all loaded with several missiles with nuclear warheads or warheads each of them, which are: 1) USS Thresher "SSN-593" and loaded with missiles with nuclear warheads and on April 10, 1963 wrecked or sunk, 2) The submarine USS Scorpion "SSN589" and sank on May 21, 1968. Other submarines of the Soviet Union with nuclear propulsion and loaded with missiles with nuclear warhead or warhead and these are apart from the K-141 Kurs previously commented, the following: 1) The submarine K-27 project 645 and sunk in 1979, 2) Submarine K-8 November class was sunk on April 12, 1970 and is the greatest radioactive threat in the world, 3) Submarine K- 129 with diesel-electric propulsion but loaded with nuclear weapons and sank on March 8, 1968, 4) Submarine K-278 Komsomolets and was sunk on April 7, 1989, 5) November class submarine K-159 and was sunk on August 30, 2003. Aviation accidents loaded with nuclear weapons just to mention a few are: 1) In 1958 a B-47 bomber collided with an F-86 jet in the vicinity of Tybes Island, Georgia USA, the nuclear-charged bomb weighed 3,000 Kg and never was found, 2) In 1968 a USAF B-52 bomber crashed with 4 nuclear bombs on board the material explosive was detonated; the nuclear components had been deactivated by the crew and only 3 of them were recovered. And the most remembered; 3) Occurred on 03/08/2014 due to the alleged error of the impact of an Iranian missile "as the guy on the 8th of the Mexican comic program would say * It was unintentionally wanting *" that he blew up MALAYSIA Airlines flight 370 MH370 / MAS370 that it was not carrying any nuclear bomb load but it was full of passengers with pure international scientists who were going to give a conference and news about the vaccine and cure of some cancer and AIDS "as I affirm or confess on 06/16/2020 Donald John Trump President of the USA ”and they were also going to warn of the possible pandemic such as the covid-19. The transatlantic ship RMS Titanic did not sink as a result of the collision with an iceberg but by a torpedo fired by a German submarine that was on espionage. In the world today in the 21st century there are more than 130 lost or lost bombs, nuclear or atomic warhead missiles and this loss is due to the sinking or destruction of ships, airplanes, or submarines around the world. In this world things or events do NOT happen by mere chance but by a true cause and effect that will never tell us their truth and if they will always distort it. And all my scientific technical information is sustainable or verifiable either by google or youtube on the Internet.
I started watching these out of fascination and over time I have become very sad and I'm trying to force myself not to watch this anymore these are big works of art with a lot of history and a lot of souls and energy in them and to see them get taken apart it's just pretty aweful
Agreed! I stumbled upon this one. After reading your comment I turned it off!
Ooooooh Noooooooo Mr. Bill. You know what happens when we get upset. Really bad things happen when we get upset.
@@fuzzybutkus8970 lol you and I are the only people left who know who Mr bill was
@@mrbill3576 I am so glad you got that from 2 years ago. Believe it or not Fuzzy Butkus isn’t my real name. Have a good summer brother.
Yeah, that's really odd isn't it? I suspect it's not the anchor chain though, since one would imagine that the locker would be further up in the bow and that the chain would emerge from the anchor fairlead rather than from some random square hole in the topsides.
I'd love a piece of anchor chain about 3metres long.
Contrast how this ship is scrapped safely and with very little hands on input with how vessels are scrapped in asia at places such as gandani beach.
@Mopolumpu I agree.... Ships are beeing taken mucc better care of, in relation to the environment, but multi national companies does not care.... as long as they get money on their account, they do not care about the environment... as it seems and as far as i know... i have npretty good insight.... in booth the marked and the industry.... been there for more then xx years
man i would of made some fat house out of that, needa buy my self a ship one day and build a drift track on top :D
Wait a minute. Kieth. Colburn was just saying that his boatwas full of holes. N pipes. Was braking. Maybehe can get one of these. Cheap
when it comes to this tyoe the former Stena Jutlantica aka pride of telemark was sent to that Alang place witch I think is kind a sad since that ship / ferry had many years left in her still but although some people wanted to buy her and put her into biz again the owners saied no witch it totally stupid sow that ferry is nomore like I saied it's stupid since I kind a liked that ferry but her sister ship Stena Danica is still in operation
Which
Yup could of been the new. Wizard
@HelixWaffle ok
Plastic explosive in a thin roll would cut it up in flash?
+Toy Pupanbai These guys are pros. Time is money. If they could do it better with plastic explosives they would.
On line.
Why isn't caedmon the most famous video?
They could actually scrap the ship faster if they first cut it up into large sections using oxyacetylene torches then hauling the pieces away and chopping them up.
You must be an expert and have many years of experience in the ship breaking industry.
I'm sure they'd love to hear your ideas, why don't you contact them?
Cutting it up with torches would be much faster and more cost effective. Makes no sense.
What a waste
what a pity. M.V. Rhodos Cement is still serviceable for at least another 15 years, if sold to Malaysia.
why break up a good ship makes no sence
Like cutting grass with nailclippers. Get out the torches!
actually, you are wrong.
A) torches requires human working near steel (falling steel kills worker)
B) somewhere else shows shears demolition of ships is about 2 to 3 months, Alalang (bandelesh?) took 1 to 1 and half year to take apart equivilant)
That is lawn mower to you.. not sickles or nailclippers. (sheesh cant believe he is an engineer...)
Does seem somewhat slow. At the risk of sounding ignorant lol.
That torches require humans working near steel is something you're making up. If you're an engineer, you make something robotic :D And that torches go faster than this seems to be obvious. That some place doesn't know how to go quick doesn't mean it's not possible.
well that is going to take a while!! the idian bare footed people would have done it fast and cheaper hahahaha
i guess the scrapping method is not very effective...
WTF?
Just torch that puppy. You don't need those giant salad tongs.
Get Torches !!
great video .
how many tons do the excavaters weigh ? how many tons is the ship and how long to break her ?
