PICTURE OF THE DAY 2012

Photographs of offshore support vessels in action in many parts of the world. 

This is the UT 704 Invincible Tide working at the Ensco 102 somewhere off Australia, photographed a time ago by James Mclellan. The UT 704 may no longer be the most prolific offshore vessel design ever, having I think been knocked off its perch by the UT 755. This photograph appears in @The History of the Supply Ship, and a complete history of the vessel type, together with a list of past and current names can be found elsewhere on this site.
