20 April 2010 “Boa Sub C” received a
distress call from the “Deepwater Horizon”
rig in the Gulf of Mexico
The construction vessel was diverted to assist the rig
using her two deepwater ROVs. Under the command of
the US Coast Guard, the crew worked tirelessly to support
the containment effort. 9 July 2010: “Boa Deep C” joined
the rescue operation and played a key role in the successful
capping of the well on 16 July. The two construction vessels
with Class 3 dynamic positioning are designed for
ultra-deepwater operations with a large operational window.
Robust enough to handle rough weather
conditions around the world, the vessels have
excellent position-keeping performance.
The first-class equipment on board
each vessel includes five thrusters
from Brunvoll.
