The hire of the LR-classed SEP, ‘BHD Supply’ was arranged in order to perform the well re-completions and the barge mobilization works were carried out at Mermaid Marine Services’ yard in Dampier.

Following fit-out of the CT spread, a 15t stiff leg derrick crane and sundry 3rd party items in Dampier, the ‘BHD Supply’ was towed to the Yammaderry platform by tug, where after mooring, it was  jacked up adjacent to the platform for the CT operations.

Upon completion of the Yammaderry operations, it was jacked down and towed to the Skate platform, where similar procedures were followed. Following completion of the Skate work scope, the Supply was jacked down and towed back to Dampier for demobilization.
