Semi-Submersible Heavy Lift
Vessels
Offshore
Heavy Transport (now Boskalis) used Autoload on two

- the largest heavy lift vessels of their kind in the
world. It was the Blue Marlin, that transported
the terrorist-damaged USS Cole from Yemen waters
back to its home port of Newport News VA.
In the case of the 9,000 ton USS Cole, transporting
across two major oceans without incident required Autoload
to both plan the stability and the deballast plan ahead
of time - and to monitor both in real time using the
PC in the loading control room of the Blue Marlin.
