Heerema Marine Contractors (HMC) is proud to introduce her new semi-submersible crane vessel: Sleipnir.
The vessel will be equipped with two cranes of 10,000 tonnes lifting capacity each. The introduction
of the Sleipnir enables HMC to meet customers’ demand for lifting capacity beyond what the market can
currently offer without compromising the robustness of the traditional lifting methodology that has
proven itself since the founding of the company 55 years ago.
Sleipnir’s features – such as lifting capacity, motion behavior and large deck area – all contribute to a superior performance of the vessel.
This makes it the best technical and most effective tool for performing the offshore installation of small, large and complex facilities
from shallow to ultra-deep water. With the introduction of the Sleipnir, HMC shows commitment to its clients towards the future and
the ability to continue to serve the heavy installation and removal market for the next decades. This latest step in our fleet renewal
program further reinforces our aim to remain an industry leader in offshore installation and removal services.
