Saipem 7000 Lists Heavily in Lifting Accident in Norway

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
An update from the Norwegian Coastal Administration indicated the situation was “under control” and the crane vessel may have been righted. “The incident seems to be under control. A lift of a larger barge smoke, and caused an imbalance in weight. The crane vessel is now straightened up, while the barge lies upside down next to the vessel. The Norwegian Coastal Administration has pilots on board,” the agency wrote on Twitter (translated from Norwegian).
A sheen has been located in the water in the vicinity of the barge, which contains a maximum of 2,000 liters of oil, the Norwegian Coastal Administration reported.
