Supply and Suport Vessels

Some of these pictures where used by my wife on her blog but I thought they are worth another look The guys who work these boats patrol around the offshore platforms to move equipment and supplies from the beach to the platforms also from platform to platform Part of there work is also to stop unidentified vessels getting to close to the installation's.
And aid any safety drills or evacuations
As you can see they don't always have the easiest of jobs.

North Africa

I have arrived back from Algeria after doing a survey of a LNG gas plant that is undergoing a refurbishment of a new gas train to replace two that exploded in 2002 killing 27 people As you will notice its a beautiful climate
It is a shame that there regime as not gone for a big tourist industry to go along with there fuel resourses as the beach's and the countryside is on a par with none.
This is a view from my hotel room as you can see by the time marker I arrived early Monday but unfortunatly i only had a couple of hours before I was transported my some Ex military service men to the contractors work site
