Huge waves crash against swaying North Sea oil rig
Occurred on October 02 2021
info from Licensor : This video could make you seasick...Huge waves crash against a swaying oil rig, as a severe storm which swept across parts of Scotland hits the North Sea. The footage of the Borgholm Dolphin installation was captured at the weekend by James Eaton, an offshore worker on the nearby Lomond Platform, around 145 miles east of Aberdeen
Built in 1975, the Borgholm Dolphin is a platform that measures 108m × 61m. A massive structure weighing almost 15,000 gross tonnes and is part of the larger Dolphin Drilling fleet, which also includes rigs off the coast of Norway.
If you too wonder and dream abut the power of the sea, take a look at this next video where a ship rocks vigorously in heavy sea storm. Dramatic footage, filmed 100 miles out at sea, has emerged showing what it's like on a large ship during a major storm. The video, filmed during Storm Gertrude from the bridge of a ship on January 29, shows powerful surges of water crashing against the vessel as it rocks and sways over the waves. You can even hear the ship creaking under the wrath of the storm. It really made our stomachs drop! As if the sight wasn’t bad enough, the hand-held camera also managed to pick up the sounds too!
The footage worthy of a Hollywood disaster blockbuster was shot by Chief Officer Graeme Hatley aboard the ERRV (Emergency Response & Rescue Vessel), a 150 foot long, 1100 tonne ship, as it is being thrown around in the rough sea. C.O. Hatley says that he has seen much worse in his career of 25 years rescuing boats on the wild seas.
Mr. Hatley said that they were expecting it to be like this two days prior. The storm was ‘quick to blow, quick to go’, meaning that the bad weather was intense, but died out quickly. “We were expecting the ferocity and the wave height and had gusts of over 100 knots before we lost our anemometer,” says officer Hatley. “We were, for the first time ever, given the chance to run for shelter but didn’t take it since most of us have been in worse weather and for a longer time.”
