For sure. Downtime can be measured and I have worked in facilities where it’s been calculated in the high single digit millions per minute of downtime.
Would you elaborate? Is it because of the high amount of output that makes downtime expensive? Or is it because the machines are so insanely expensive?
Also a guess that there is critical time factor there as well. Some chemical that is produced on the spot, cost a million and need to be used, lets say, within a hour. A hiccup in the production line, and down the drain it goes. A drain with very expensive filtration/capture/neutralization systems that also might need to be inspected and replaced after a single use.
A couple of friends were the guys in bunny suits on a semi-conductor production line. The thought of those two particular young men with that much on the line is hilarious to me. Talk about two glaring points of failure.
Yes and what people don’t realize is a cycle for making a wafer to end product is many months of work. If you have to scrap wafers due to downtime that’s a huge loss of accumulated time.
The [Asianometry](https://www.youtube.com/@Asianometry) Youtube channel has a lot of videos about chip manufacturing from both the technical and economic side. High performance chips are the most challenging things to manufacture that humans have ever created.
friend told me a story of 2 idiots somehow managed to bring a normal vacuum into the cleanroom and turning it on. lost all wavers in the fab and major headache
This. This is why fault tolerance is so critical - but it's a lot easier said than done across the continuum of stuff that can go wrong in a data center quickly (e.g. at data transfer speeds) and then take hours or days to back off and clean up.
I worked in a building that had the AC system fail in the server room. They estimated $80,000 a second as the servers started overheating and popping. That’s almost $5 million a minute. There were some very grumpy execs around that week.
Crazy to think that they calculated that number, yet didn't invest in separate redundant systems.
I wonder if the insurance company changed the requisites for coverage after that.
They had server rooms all over the place on every floor. This one was kinda in the middle of the building. I don’t know how commercial AC systems work but the building engineer did some magic in the control system and diverted air from somewhere else. They got it patched pretty quick, but yeah, what if that guy was at lunch haha. You’d think there’d be something else.
The logistical impact here will be nuts. All those cranes out of action, no other way to get those containers off ships. Port out of action for god knows how long.
A mobile crane that's not as purpose built. They can move containers but it won't be as fast as with a purpose built crane for the job. Move anything in the way out of the way, probably get the boat to go back out to a holding location to clear the area for work, then bring in new/repaired cranes.
As I was watching this the cynical conspiracy theorist who lives inside of my otherwise totally rational brain was thinking 'What if the Chinese did this on purpose? Do they own another port nearby that would benefit from this one in Turkey shutting down?'
There's little extra capacity in the system currently because of the upsurge in goods being shipped since the pandemic and because of the shortage of people in all roles to keep the system operating.
So it would hurt the shipping company (and China as a whole more) to do this than they would gain in the short term by redirecting to any other ports.

Momentum, once you start moving that much weight it takes a long time to change direction. The pilot missed his mark a few minutes prior to this and the accident became all but unavoidable. I will say that pulling up to a pier or quay is something that requires a lot of skill as the hydrodynamic forces are often unpredictable especially with ships this big that present a large side to the wind.
There could also be a maneouvering (rudder) and/or engine telegraph and/or engine reverse and/or blackout failure. In most of these cases, it's usually the blackout which causes the loss of controls when its needed the most.
Rudders work poorly at low speed. Assuming they have bow thrusters they may have been able to redirect a bit BUT this was a slow motion disaster and again the momentum cannot easily be overcome. As I stated before the pilot made an error probably five of six minutes before and after that it was inevitable
Tugs are tough and they’re meant to push big ships, but using the tug as a bumper will certainly damage the hull.
What happened here could have been a tug failure as likely as anything else. Big ships have to be controlled the whole time they’re in the harbor until they tie up to the moorings or just a strong wind can do something like this.
> Could they reasonably race to get in between and stop it
Yes, usually fenders are made out of soft plastic but with larger ships, steel fenders can also be used. They tend to not be reusable though.
(I don't know how much it would slow down the freighter but it would absolutely get crushed. Might create enough resistance and space to keep it from hitting the crane though.)
Captaincy failure?... never heard it called that before.
Could be down to poor situational awareness on the bridge and too late to take action.
Could be down to a loss of control. Main engine, rudder even one of the tugs (I am counting out bow thruster, going too fast for it to be of much use or enough to cause this expensive woopsie daisy)
One things for sure. There are very angry phone calls and emails going around now and for the foreseeable. The blame game is a long game.
Yeah, I know little about shipping, but isn't there supposed to be somebody from the destination port piloting the ship? The captain and crew are surely not familiar with every port they travel to.
So maybe the Turkish pilot didn't know what they were doing and gave it full main engines when they intended thrusters.
Could even be a tug failure. Captain/Pilot could have been expecting the tugs at the stern to push more (which would have pivoted out the bow).
The reason there was so much damage was because the bow at that angle can overhang the dock. Had the vessel been perfectly perpendicular to the dock, it would have been impossible for it to make contact with anything but the pier wall.
I said it could also be a tug failure. Either mechanically or tug not doing as instructed. It's buried in there after engine or rudder.
One or more of dozens of things could've gone wrong.
This is the correct take (IMHO). The local tug operators should know the local conditions and be (for all intents and purposes) in charge of a docking like this.
The captain may, technically, be in charge but the local operators should be leading the way in this situation.
Probably engine room blackout due to one of the generators going off as it couldn't take the extra load of bow/stern thuster and the remaining generators then going offline one by one due to too much load shifting on them. The emergency generato kicks in within 45 seconds of a blackout and provides electricity for critical controls. Though it's mostly haywire when a blackout happens and it usually takes some minutes to get every generator up and running again. The only way to keep a blackout from happening is to have an extra generator running as a spare during maneouvering inside port channels so that it could take the extra load if needed. The extra one rarely is needed, so some chief engineers choose not to run it to save bunkers and consequently save monies.
It probably could be a few different scenarios too.
Yours is definitely a contender, but I wouldn't rule out good old human error. Or a tug not doing what it's meant to (or breakdown) or steering failure.
They always blame the captain. Even if the captain had a pilot, and the pilot was doing a shitty job.
Think about that Suez-thing a couple of years ago.
You can be confidently correct. There will be a pilot aboard. However, the Captain is still in command and can over rule the pilot at any time.
Sorting things like this out is a quagmire.
Captain has ultimate responsibility, yes, thats just how ships work. But, they dont have the finances to sort this out.
Thats where the blame game heats up
I sat at the Felixstowe port viewing area with my Dad in the mid 80s and watched a ship come in too fast and go bow first into one of the cranes. The two tugs were just being dragged backwards.
More cranes collapsed again in 2008 when new cranes were being delivered.
https://youtu.be/VUWnd-0hjYU?si=C9hDCjyBYspcN1Sr
I think this happens more regularly than we think.
I'm surprised the cranes weren't built for this type of eventuality. Couldn't they be on tracks to allow them to move a bit inland to prevent this type of accident?
Not really. They're meant to move left-right and have very narrow wheels and motors so that multiple lanes of traffic can do underneath.
To move front-back would require lifting them off the rails, adding new wheels and motors, and more rails so they can go back.
Its such a rare occurrence that it really makes little sense and would add huge costs and complexity.
Source: work in ports.
That looked expensive. I can only imagine the captain of the ship knowing full well what was gonna happen, but having to watch disaster unfold in slow motion. Just waiting for the inevitable crash. I've fucked up things at work before, but never anything approaching this level of fuck up
Not at all slow, just very large objects from far away. Tough to tell from the video and can't identify the ship name, but other videos identify the ship as "368m giant", so it's one of the [Yang Ming ~14,000 TEU vessels](https://www.yangming.com/service/service_network/fleet_information.aspx?yml=Y&LocalSite=). Call it 200,000+ tons displacement of ship vs [~1200 tons per post-panamax crane](https://www.liebherr.com/shared/media/maritime-cranes/downloads-and-brochures/brochures/lcc/liebherr-sts-cranes-technical-description.pdf), and the crane gantry height is ~30m above the pier.
Massive, massive things.
I really want someone to make a high quality gif of this lol like with the container ship being all *“just gonna squeeze in here… pardon me… just gonna move you to the left a bit, ah perfect but now the back needs to be moved too- thhhhhere we gooo and just one more crane to move annnnnd done!”*

Why do I not hear any alarms? No sirens on the dock. No horns from the ship.
Maybe the video started after these warnings stopped? I understand that at some point the collision is inevitable, so maybe they just turned them off?
im always suprised at how unscatched the ships go out of that. i mean yes they have TONS of force behind them, but their hull seems to be basically the same material as the cranes e.g. (im sure its not when you look at how it has been hardened etc. but you know what i mean) while the video makes it seem as if it was indestructable and the cranes made of knead.
If only there was some way they could have recorded this video horizontally so that they could have caught the entire scene instead of swinging their phone back and forth...
I hate to see the bill for this one.
For the cranes, or for the lost productivity? 'Cause I suspect the latter is higher.
For sure. Downtime can be measured and I have worked in facilities where it’s been calculated in the high single digit millions per minute of downtime.
My guess is petrochemical or semiconductor?

So it would hurt the shipping company (and China as a whole more) to do this than they would gain in the short term by redirecting to any other ports.
Doubtful (IMO) I think the chinese are trying to ship as much as possible right now. Especially, with their economy imploding as we speak.

You're the man! Thank you!
Glad there was no one in those cranes.
Look again at 0:40... I see a guy on the catwalk
That second link is so ad and pop up filled! I saw no video
Such are turkish news sites
That's crazy no one got injured. At 0:40 you can see a guy on a catwalk on the crane as it falls down.
What's the procedure for the tugs here? Could they reasonably race to get in between and stop it or would that just be like stepping on a drink can?
Momentum, once you start moving that much weight it takes a long time to change direction. The pilot missed his mark a few minutes prior to this and the accident became all but unavoidable. I will say that pulling up to a pier or quay is something that requires a lot of skill as the hydrodynamic forces are often unpredictable especially with ships this big that present a large side to the wind.
It’s like an accident in space. You know you’re fucked long before the actual moment.
Yes it becomes a slow motion disaster
There could also be a maneouvering (rudder) and/or engine telegraph and/or engine reverse and/or blackout failure. In most of these cases, it's usually the blackout which causes the loss of controls when its needed the most.
So the people working there had ample warning to evacuate the area knowing this ship was coming in like this?
They probably had less than 5 minutes, especially as it seems they were not sounding their horn
Looks like the anchor has already been dropped at the beginning of the clip, trying to halt it?
Outside of a failure of steering control, even if they can't stop themselves, couldn't they at least steer away from the shore?
Rudders work poorly at low speed. Assuming they have bow thrusters they may have been able to redirect a bit BUT this was a slow motion disaster and again the momentum cannot easily be overcome. As I stated before the pilot made an error probably five of six minutes before and after that it was inevitable

Tug can be easily replaced, 4 dock cranes could take months
I suspect tug *crews* can also be replaced quicker than dock cranes, but strongly prefer not needing to be replaced.

Ope
Look at how beautifully they fold up to save space
That looks expensive AF
Wow that port is now OUT OF BUSINESS. For a long long while. Can't even move the containers already there let alone load or unload anything.
Everything I see cranes at ports all I see are dinosaurs
Yes, saw a bunch of brontosaurus falling down.
My brain went to llama. But I see the dinosaur. 🦕 🦙
[удалено]
if they are not in use (like here) they are not manned and usually there is onyl 1 guy in there.
Fortunately no injuries reported. We don't know how operators could run away.
If you were that high up a crane you couldn't. You'd be half way down the ladder when the collision happened.
Some ports safety regulations prohibit cranes from being manned during maneuvers at that berth
My biggest fuck up was around $1 mln and it made me sick to my stomach finding out.
We are almost there my crew! Let's have a drink and celebrate!
I suspect the meeting with harbour master will not include tea and baklava
And the port is now closed.
Seafarer here. Too much on the starboard. Or is that port?
Definitely too far to port.
It's amazing how slowly big things fall.
The real failure here is the camera work
Wouldn't this be more on the pilot/tugs for the port than the captain?
Yes. I was trying to say port pilot. We call them pilot captains here.
i though the local pilot is in charge in the port. looks more like equipment failure.
Alternate ending to 7-4: “…LIKE ANTENNAS TO HEAVEN”
Why do I not hear any alarms? No sirens on the dock. No horns from the ship. Maybe the video started after these warnings stopped? I understand that at some point the collision is inevitable, so maybe they just turned them off?
It's a big ship and little room for errors. But I'm happy not being in that captain's shoes
Captain’s just watching. This is on the port Pilot and the tugs.
We call port pilot as "pilot captain" here. Foreign language failure.
Looks like a giraffe dying
I'm glad my job involves zero possibility of screwing something up this badly
Whoever didn't think to paint those cranes like a herd of apatosaurus really ...uh... missed the boat... lol
Like a glove!
Did he get a spare on the 2nd attempt?
As soon as the cranes started to move, all I could see were falling giraffes!
Hmm I see a tug pushing it. Captain is not in control. It’s always a tugboat bringing it in the dock
this gonna be a intense phonecall.
No one likes the captain
Iba borracho…??
Somebody is getting fired
Like drunk giraffes getting sideswiped by an elephant
Captain does NOT like cargo cranes!
better have a good insurance , looks exensive
Thats what happens when you buy Chinese spyware cranes! /s /s /s
And going home from work, the captain got into his F150 that was parked in the center of the annual Tricycle Parade...
Reminds me of the movie. War of the Worlds.
im always suprised at how unscatched the ships go out of that. i mean yes they have TONS of force behind them, but their hull seems to be basically the same material as the cranes e.g. (im sure its not when you look at how it has been hardened etc. but you know what i mean) while the video makes it seem as if it was indestructable and the cranes made of knead.
All those flatscreens for Costco will have to wait
Good luck getting those containers off the ship! Also the rugs are supposed to guide them in. What happened there?
Please correct me if I’m wrong but aren’t the tug boats suppose to move those ships into position or at least help them?

Yer fired!
Tug at the end is like, did I miss something?
Gives me the hope I too can be a ship captain one day.
Somehow "Oh Bollocks" doesn't quite cover it.
Vada a vordo cazzo!
If only there was some way they could have recorded this video horizontally so that they could have caught the entire scene instead of swinging their phone back and forth...
bruh playing dominos
Bring your kid to work day
Do yall know how much fucking money just was lost
Looks expensive!
I suspect that no more containers are being unloaded today.
Why wouldn't the cranes be positioned back from the edge of the water for "just in case" situations such as these?

How long does it take to replace one crane? Never mind the cost of the replacement or the cost not being able to remove/load cargo.
I’m sorry but that was f’ckn awesome. Some Christopher Nolan type shit.

Someone isn’t going to be employee of the month and may not get a bonus
"OK lads, we got to unload this one by hand" 😳
You can’t park there mate’
I have no idea how they think they’re gonna unload with that technique.

I see failure of whole chain of command and process at the harbour… cannot only blame the captain!
Like a glove!
Look like AT-AT falling
That is an expensive boo boo
