PICTURE OF THE DAY 2015

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

This is the Transocean Amirante departing from Malta in tow of the Alp Ace in the direction of Turkish breakers. A sign of the times one might think. But this is an Aker H3 built in Finland in 1978 as the Seaway Swan, and probably only became part of Transocean as part of its fleet acquisition process.

Photo  taken a week ago by Gaetano Spiteri and posted here on 18th November 2015.
