Heavy Lift Vessel (HLV) Svanen
Ballast Nedam designed the HLV Svanen specifically for the construction of the mega-structure ‘Storebaelt Bridge’, a 18 km long bridge which links the Danish islands Fyn and Sjaelland. The bridge’s pre-fab elements were so large and heavy that a floating crane was needed. To meet the heavier demands for the Canadian Confederation Bridge, HLV Svanen was enlarged and its lifting capacity further increased to an impressive 8,700 tonnes.
