The Resolution is a ship designed to install offshore windmills |
|
It effectively lowers its six legs to the sea floor and jacks itself up to form an installation platform |
The steel legs have platform feet to distribute the load and prevent a collapse of the sea bed |
|
Here is the ship in an elevated stance |
The heavy lifting cranes |
|
These large steel pipes are driven into the sea bed by hammers |
|
This is the hammer |
This is the second stage, an attachment seen above sea level, to which the wind turbine is than appended. |
