We finished the project up north at the Åsgard field and spent nearly two days transiting southwards through bad weather. Now we're alongside at the CCB offshore base, just north of Bergen.
There's more bad weather forecast, which is bad for me because I've had enough of this work and have another job to go to, starting 21st September.
Meanwhile we're mobilising for the next couple of weeks work.
Those huge metal cylinders on the quayside are suction anchors, used for the anchoring systems of FPSOs and the like.
And that yellow thing on the flatbed is a boulder grabber. An upcoming project for us requires the identification and removal of seabed boulders prior to template installations.
Never a nice sight... these drill rigs should be out working. Hopefully they're just in for some refurb. There's the leg of a jack-up just visible at the left of the picture as well, left of the crane.
The COSLinnovator (yellow) and the Transocean Arctic behind are designed for deep water harsh environments.
And another drill rig and jack-up across the bay... it's unusual to see so many rigs not working at this time of the season in what was set to be a very busy year. Not a good sign, and hopefully not a long term consequence of Covid.
