The works will be carried out by two flat top barges and one jack-up platform. One tugboat 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 80 metres around each flat top barge will be established. Yellow marker buoys fitted with yellow flashing lights will be laid to mark the positions of the anchors extending from the barges.
Yellow flashing lights will be installed at the four corners of the jack-up platform to indicate its position.
The hours of work will be from 0700 hours to 1900 hours from Monday to Saturday. Vessels employed for the works will stay in the works locations outside the hours of work.
Vessels engaged in the operations will display signals as prescribed in international and local regulations.
Vessels navigating in the vicinity should proceed with caution.
