The works will be carried out from a flotilla of vessels including jack-up platforms, flat top barges, grab dredgers, hopper barges, dumb steel lighters at various stages. Some tugs and some work boats will provide assistance. The number of vessels engaged in the works will change from time to time to suit operational requirements. A working area of approximately 150 metres will be established around each working vessel in most part of the working area; whereas a working area of about 360 metres will be established around the working vessel operating near the south-eastern end of the works area. Yellow marker buoys fitted with yellow flashing lights will be laid to mark the positions of the anchors extending from the working vessels. The hours of work will be round-the-clock. Vessels engaged in the operations will display signals as prescribed in international and local regulations. Vessels navigating in the vicinity should proceed with caution and keep clear at slow speed, bearing in mind there are divers working in the area.
