He pushes the colourful blocks back and forth and is pleased when the jigsaw puzzle fits together again. This is not a leisure activity for the captain of the &#8220;Eiger&#8221;, it is a professional must: &#8220;Each block on the loading plan stands for a container&#8221;, said the 56-year-old Swiss, &#8220;and I have to position them so that they can be loaded and unloaded optimally at every harbour.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>9th May, just before 8 am. On the way from Basel to Rotterdam, Rudolf stopped at the Rhine harbour of Strasbourg. Loading is carried out by crane as soon as the is inland waterway ship moored. &#8220;Here we are collecting ten containers today&#8221;, said Rudolf, &#8220;We will be on our way in half an hour.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;Eiger&#8221;: year of construction 2001, 179 m long, space for maximum 354 standard containers. The inland waterway ship of the Dutch shipping company Danser was converted to LNG in 2014 &#8211; and that was being the first inland waterway container ship at all. The LNG tank costs us six container slots &#8220;but it was worth it to us.&#8221; Many valves from HEROSE on the storage tank, on the bunker lines as well as on the GPU \u2013 the &#8220;Gas Processing Unit&#8221; \u2013 ensure for safe operation since then.<\/p>\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-container brlbs-cmpnt-content-blocker brlbs-cmpnt-with-individual-styles\" data-borlabs-cookie-content-blocker-id=\"youtube-content-blocker\" data-borlabs-cookie-content=\"PGlmcmFtZSBzcmM9Imh0dHBzOi8vd3d3LnlvdXR1YmUtbm9jb29raWUuY29tL2VtYmVkL21iXy11Wlcwd0hJIiB3aWR0aD0iNTYwIiBoZWlnaHQ9IjMxNSIgZnJhbWVib3JkZXI9IjAiIGFsbG93ZnVsbHNjcmVlbj0iYWxsb3dmdWxsc2NyZWVuIj48L2lmcmFtZT4=\">\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-preset-c brlbs-cmpnt-cb-youtube\">\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-thumbnail\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.valves-community.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/borlabs-cookie\/1\/yt_mb_-uZW0wHI_hqdefault.jpg')\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-main\">\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-play-button\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-content\">\n<p class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-description\">You are currently viewing a placeholder content from <strong>YouTube<\/strong>.

The LNG is bunkered in Rotterdam by a trailer \u2013 truck to ship. A permanent bunker station on the Rhine should be opened in Autumn 2019 (see extra report).<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Rudolf, the boss on-board, Cees Bouman is also travelling as second captain. Both take their turn in the rudder every eight hours. A fixed team of three sailors are also on-board &#8211; two Czechs and one Dutchman. &#8220;We have been together since many years and we are completely on the same wavelength&#8221;, said Rudolf. The team always works for four weeks &#8211; two round trips long &#8211; and then has the same amount of time free. During the weeks on-board, we all share a flat under deck: a living room, kitchen, bathroom are there for all and everyone has his own bedroom. In the living area, there is always a slight overpressure as they are in the so-called &#8220;Ex area&#8221; of the LNG tank, the explosion area. An overpressure prevents an unnoticed penetration of gas.<\/p>\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-container brlbs-cmpnt-content-blocker brlbs-cmpnt-with-individual-styles\" data-borlabs-cookie-content-blocker-id=\"youtube-content-blocker\" data-borlabs-cookie-content=\"PGlmcmFtZSBzcmM9Imh0dHBzOi8vd3d3LnlvdXR1YmUtbm9jb29raWUuY29tL2VtYmVkLzN0a09QSGo0VkpBIiB3aWR0aD0iNTYwIiBoZWlnaHQ9IjMxNSIgZnJhbWVib3JkZXI9IjAiIGFsbG93ZnVsbHNjcmVlbj0iYWxsb3dmdWxsc2NyZWVuIj48L2lmcmFtZT4=\">\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-preset-c brlbs-cmpnt-cb-youtube\">\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-thumbnail\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.valves-community.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/borlabs-cookie\/1\/yt_3tkOPHj4VJA_hqdefault.jpg')\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-main\">\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-play-button\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-content\">\n<p class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-description\">You are currently viewing a placeholder content from <strong>YouTube<\/strong>.

He knows every corner &#8211; he looks forward to passing through the section between Bingen and Bonn every time: &#8220;And the highlight is always the Lorelei.&#8221; But this also bears the most narrow corner of the Rhine: &#8220;You have to be as careful as a lynx there.&#8221; The &#8220;Eiger&#8221; is one of the longest ships that sails on the Rhine.<\/p>\n<p>A dented VW Golf is parked at the back of the &#8220;Eiger&#8221;. With this car the crew goes shopping in the harbours &#8211; a small car crane lifts it onshore. The favourite dish of the crew is rumen, a cow stomach dish from grandma&#8217;s kitchen. Captain Rudolf always prepares this himself, roast hare is his second favourite dish.<\/p>\n<p>As the &#8220;Eiger&#8221; arrives at the harbour of Kehl in the afternoon \u2013 three hours later than expected, &#8220;because a container was missing in Strasbourg&#8221; \u2013 after taking a quick look at the sky, Rudolf and his crew spontaneously decided: &#8220;Lets have a barbecue on the afterdeck.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-service\"><div class=\"su-service-title\" style=\"padding-left:46px;min-height:32px;line-height:32px\"><i class=\"sui sui-square\" style=\"font-size:32px;color:#339933\"><\/i> HEROSE valves for LNG applications<\/div><div class=\"su-service-content su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\" style=\"padding-left:46px\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.herose.com\/eng\/products\/cryogenic-services\/choice-globe-valves.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Manual globe valves DN25 to DN200<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.herose.com\/eng\/products\/cryogenic-services\/choice-actuated-valves.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pneumatically actuated globe valves DN10 to DN200<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.herose.com\/eng\/products\/cryogenic-services\/choice-cryogenic-safety-valves.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Safety valves DN6 to DN50<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.herose.com\/eng\/products\/cryogenic-services\/choice-check-valves.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Check valves DN10 to DN200<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.herose.com\/eng\/products\/cryogenic-services\/choice-strainer.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Strainer DN10 to DN200<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<p>Photos: rcfotostock &#8211; Fotolia.com (at the top), Carsten Wurr<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Did you like this article?<\/h3>\n<p>Please get further information and background reports about industrial valves and applications via the free HEROSE newsletter.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.herose.com\/eng\/\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-flat\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#339933;border-color:#297b29;border-radius:5px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:0px 16px;font-size:13px;line-height:26px;border-color:#71b871;border-radius:5px;text-shadow:none\"> Subscribe here<\/span><\/a>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The inland waterway ship &#8220;Eiger&#8221; has been travelling with LNG since five years.
