Comments

Preparations for arrival at Mawson proceed swimmingly well with detailed planning for the discharge and refuelling ops commenced. The ingoing Mawson Team have continued on with their training, and the P&O crew have been conducting safety and environment meetings and Hazard Identification Rounds. This afternoon Voyage Management will review all of the Service Level Agreements with the onboard stakeholders and confirm plans for work to be undertaken during our stay at the longest continuously manned station on the Antarctic Continent. The health, welfare and morale of the team remain at their usual high levels.

Regards

Andy, Sharon and Chris
