Comments

Operations are continuing at a great pace. 46 personnel were deployed to station yesterday and over 16,000Kg of cargo was flown ashore.
This morning more personnel have been sent ashore and we are currently sling loading cargo at a great rate from the ships heli deck.

The ships deck crew are doing a fantastic job both running the heli deck, getting cargo hooked up to the choppers and discharging cargo from the vessel's holds to ensure we can continue to feed the helicopters.

Station handovers continue, and like the ship, the crew on the ship, the personnel on station involved in helicopter operations are being very kept busy as well.

Just another busy day on what is a wonderful office!

Cheers,

Andrew and Mark
