Oil Tanker Passing Panama Canal Locks | Timelapse

Описание: MR Oil Tanker TORM LAURA passing The Panama Canal Miraflores and Pedro Miguel Locks. Transiting from The Pacific Ocean to The Caribbean Sea.
Ship length: 183 m, beam: 32 m.

The sea level of The Atlantic Ocean (The Caribbean Sea) and The Pacific Ocean is not the same. The Pacific Ocean lies a little higher than The Atlantic Ocean. The difference in the sea level requires The Panama Canal locks to lift the ships up 26 m (85 ft) to the main elevation of The Panama Canal and down again.

About I LOVE SAILING:

How is life at sea in The Danish Merchant Navy?
Maybe you dream of a maritime career, of sailing around the world or maybe you are just curious about life at sea. I have made this channel to give you some insights about the life and lifestyle as a modern seafarer and I hope it will inspire and motivate you to pursue your dreams.

My name is Thomas Dyrehauge. I am 35 years old and from Denmark. I have spent many years of my life at sea.

From 2010 to 2020 I worked at sea in the Danish shipping company TORM A/S on board oil and chemical tankers world wide. I worked on board in the following positions: Deck Cadet, 3rd Officer, 2nd Officer and Chief Officer.

From 2020 to 2024 I worked ashore as an Assistant Harbour Master at The Port of Aalborg, Denmark.

Since May 2024 I have worked at sea in the Danish shipping company DFDS A/S as a Deck Officer on board ro-ro passenger and cargo ships. I now work permanently on board the ro-ro cargo ship SCANDIA SEAWAYS.

Earlier I have also sailed on fully rigged training ships both as a trainee and an officer and on board offshore crew transfer vessels as an officer.
In my spare time I love sailing sailboats.

Thanks for watching - See you in my next video!
