The wood pulp carrier Timbus berthed at Greenwells Quay. The Soedra group is specialised on forestry and wood products, owning a number of specialised ships to transport wood pulp. At the time of taking this picture, the crew were taking part in a lifeboat drill. The lifeboat (on the left) is normally held in the frame on the right of the ship and launched by free fall in an emergency. A demonstration can be seen here: youtu.be/6zPQqE4BH0k .
