The giant heavy-lift crane vessel Saipem 7000 was listing Thursday after suffering a lifting accident in a Norwegian fjord near Stavanger.

The Norwegian rescue services report the vessel listed in connecting with a lifting operation. A barge next to the crane vessel has capsized. All crew are reported safe.

There were some reports online of explosions. Photos and video shared online show the vessel listing heavily with its main deck nearly in the water.
