Oil Platform on Special Transport Ship Mighty Servant 2
Wallpaper Description:
Mighty Servant 2 was a 29,000-ton semi-submersible heavy-lift ship. The MS2 was built in 1983 for Dutch shipping firm Wijsmuller Transport, which merged in 1993 with Dock Express Shipping to become Breda-based offshore heavylifting group Dockwise Shipping B.V. Most of MS2's cargoes were oil platforms and related gear. When loading its mammoth burdens, the ship took thousands of tons of water into ballast tanks, sinking its cargo deck underwater. The cargo would be floated into position, whereupon the MS2 would slowly pump out its ballast, lifting the deck up to sailing position.
The firm's website says such ships can "carry the heaviest semi-submersible drilling units, harsh-environment deep-water jack-up rigs and large floating production platforms like TLP's, FPU's and spars with drafts of up to 14 metres."
