Thanks BV, new i had seen it somewhere.LOL Steve the first is i would say maybe a chip carrier, the 2nd is a pipe laying vessel used in offshore technology.The Lorelay pipelay vessel laid the lines out to approx. 1,060m of water at the FPU location.
Has on the back of the ship Pananma word as well.
