Inspection and maintenance on the Corrib gas pipeline and associated infrastructure is scheduled to take place from next week.

Conducted by Vermillion Ireland, the works from next Wednesday 6 May, weather permitting, are expected to last for around 20 days and comprise an inspection of the offshore pipeline and subsea structure as well as engineering work on well P3.

The vessel Edda Sun (callsign LARF7) will undertake these works using its own mounted equipment as well as that mounted on a remote operated vehicle (ROV). It will be listening on VHF Channel 16 throughout the project.

We've got a favour to ask

More people are reading Afloat.ie than ever thanks to the power of the internet but we're in stormy seas because advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news sites, we haven't put up a paywall because we want to keep our marine journalism open.

Afloat.ie is Ireland's only full-time marine journalism team and it takes time, money and hard work to produce our content.

So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
