Wellservicer - Jan 14th - 23rd


My first diving operation onboard the CSO Wellservicer. Mobilised the vessel at CCB outside Bergen with 18 divers.

Our first operation was at Tampen Link for recovery of a stuck 80kNm torque tool and flush the 12" in-line Tee with MEG. Next was to perform flsuhing and pressure test of the TLS PLEM HP cap and stabilise the GRP covers at SIPS Hot-tap T. I was together with Bjarne Sandvik and Knut Steinar Kvindesland.

The next operation was to blind one of the seawater inlets on Snorre A platform. Diving depth was 35m and vessel distance to platform was down to 9m. Unfortunately we had to abort the operation due to limited weather window and borderline length of diver umbilical.

I left the vessel via Shetlands and Scotland.
