I hope to capture their arrival as & when they do

Its a 24hr sail from Aberdeen from the Brent Field on a normal vessel. I reckon the Delta will be sitting offshore Teeside by tomorrow if the weather holds up.

Well, it's dumped its load & gone back for another

Quite misty so not very clear

Thanks for the update. It will be a wee while before you see another one. It's sad (for me anyway) to see it like this as I spent way too many days on that rig, but happy for you lads down there as there are three more to come, which I hope will bring some decent work for the dismantlers.

The video of it being lifted was quite impressive and lifted cleanly, especially the wave compensation system.

There be some very scared Monkeys then

Monkey hanging on an industrial scale

Please note I am not advocating harm to animals - the comment is a vaguely funny comment and should be taken in the context it is intended - French Spys in monkey suits however should be very careful around Hartlepool at this time
