The works are being carried out by one crane barge, one derrick barge and one dry cargo ship. Two tugboats will provide assistance.
A working area of approximately 50 metres around each barge is established. Yellow marker buoys fitted with yellow flashing lights are laid to mark the positions of the anchors extending from the barges.
Silt curtains fitted with yellow flashing lights are established within the works areas. The silt curtain is a large piece of netting used to contain mud and sediments.
The hours of work are from 0700 to 2300 hours. Vessels employed for the works stay in the works areas outside the hours of work.
Vessels engaged in the operations display signals as prescribed in international and local regulations.
Vessels navigating in the vicinity should proceed with caution.
