My trip at the Myrina

On March 3rd 2003 a Schreiner helicopter took pilots Peter Juk, Paul Jong and Han Luik and me from the Maasvlakte to the Shell Tanker "MYRINA".

The Myrina, loaded with 330.336 m3 crude, was 60 km off coast. With a depth of 21.6 m, it entered the 8th Petroleum harbour via the 'Eurogeul' (the waterway in the Northsea, near Rotterdam). It got assistance from the tugboats Thamesbank, Smit Clyde, Smit Humber and Smit Loire.
