The Saipem 7000, considered one of the world's largest semi-submersible crane vessels, has passed through the Bosphorus.

Due to the giant vessel's transit through the Strait, maritime traffic was suspended in both directions in a controlled manner. Necessary arrangements were made along the route during the passage.

The progress of the Saipem 7000 through the Strait drew attention due to its size and the crane systems it carries. The vessel is known as the third-largest in the world in the category of semi-submersible crane vessels.
