The works will be carried out by one derrick lighter. Two tugboats and one guard boat will provide assistance. A working area of approximately 30 metres around the lighter will be established. Yellow marker buoys fitted with yellow flashing lights will be laid to mark the positions of the anchors extending from the lighter.
