    In 1978, HMC commissioned Mitsui to construct the two sister semi-submersible crane vessels, DCV Balder and SSCV Hermod. These vessels could lift 5,400 tonnes with the twin cranes, and were later upgraded to 8,200 tonnes. [2] In 1988 HMC formed a joint venture with McDermott called HeereMac.

  9. Semi-submersible platform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-submersible_platform

    Unlike a submersible, a semi-submersible vessel is not supported by resting on the seabed. Semi-submersible vessels are able to transform from a deep to a shallow draft by deballasting (removing ballast water from the hull), thereby becoming surface vessels. Usually they are moved from location to location in this configuration.
