In this video we show how the largest ships in the world are moored, from the ultralargest container ships to the very largest crude oil carriers in port of Rotterdam.

Mooring is a procedure to anchor the ship to a fixed or floating element and keep it connected during loading or unloading operations. Safe mooring must withstand several forces, such as wind, the current, the tide and waves.
