Dear Elviro and Lutz

This is just a small note from me personally and supported by ConocoPhillips (UK) Ltd to say thank you very much for all the work and effort everyone has put into this operation to make it successful.

The vessel is immaculate throughout and all the ships officers are great at steering good straight lines for survey a much needed skill for these operations.

Thanks to all the crew who, not only keep the vessel great, but always willing and cheerful to give a hand with the survey guys.

It was good to see everyone always being very aware of good safety procedures, a great credit to you all.

The Galley staff always producing good food three times a day and keeping the Galley and mess rooms in a perfect clean and very hygienic condition, a rare sight and great to see it, especially in trying circumstances

To all the survey crew who continued to “battle on” with the operation come “hell and high winds” and to convince the Geo the records are great!

But also, especially when all the odds were against them, with no proper spares and having very little more than bits of chewing gum, sticky tape and a little tube of bathroom sealant, achieved a sonar termination that enabled us to complete the project.

That was some achievement.

This proves that good skills, team efforts, good will, overcomes bureaucracy every time

Thanks to you all and good luck with your future operations

Regards

Bob Badgery ConocoPhillips Representative
