Supertanker Engine Room Tour

Can someone tell me how many millions of kilometers run a ship engine of this size on average?

the camera is shaky and too fast

No

Well done, thumbs up ! Corey is right.

sooooo...sub can detect this from other corner of the globe.. xDD

The turbocharger is like the loudest thing in the engine room.

lights cigar

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

WOW.. Reminds me of my Years in the navy working in engine rooms of the 3 ships I was on. Wish I was back there again.. Fixing cars is getting old...

I sailed on lots of double acting 2 strokes. B&W

What surprises me most about this is how CLEAN it all is. Talk about ship-shape and good gasket technology. I'll bet a roll of duct tape never came near it. If car engines were built and maintained to this standard, they'd last a million miles easy. I wonder what the total displacement is, or if you can be a marine engineer if you're deaf.

it is very pure ship

Could've been a fine video except for the moron operating the camera.  Got Parkinsons?

purifying room and generator are too close in this vessel why?

Holy crap, the noise level is mind numbing, the engineers must feel such a relief when they get off the vesel and their hearing working with normal noises. Do that drives you nuts? I mean, so much noise all the time?

im an marine engineer, to us this is porn.

Im curious how the oil is changed on main engine and how much oil it takes

That's an awful lot of stuff to run that thing. Why not just drop in a pair of big block Chevy's?

brings back memories.  I did a 4 month trip on this particular ship.

You know what would be even more exciting?.... Actually seeing moving parts.

The first thing they teach new hires who will be working in that engine room is, DON'T FORGET YOUR EAR PLUGS!
