After our weather delay yesterday morning were able to do some cargo in the afternoon before the ship and station geared up and we moved out into Kista Strait. It was a very smooth operation with personnel on station releasing the mooring lines to the IRBs who guided them back to the ship as the crew pulled them onto the ship. We then slowly made our way out of the harbour to a position where we could recommence cargo operations.
Were able to continue cargo operations until stumps last night. We still have some cargo to move to the ship and several other tasks before heading to Davis. We hope that we can kick off cargo operations later this morning. In breaks in the weather we have managed to launch the rigid inflatable boat and barge from the ship and are waiting for the next weather window to move them ashore. This will allow us to fuel the barge in preparation for the first cargo run of the day.
Cheers
Leanne, Simon and Amy
