Maersk Server to replace damaged Pacific Discovery on Maari oilfield upgrade
A replacement support ship is heading to the Maari oilfield to continue work on the $60 million upgrade of the Raroa storage and production vessel. Eight mooring lines anchoring the Raroa to the sea floor 100 metres beneath are being overhauled. But earlier this month a support vessel, the Pacific Discovery, got rope caught in one propeller, causing significant damage. A second propeller was also affected in the April 11 accident and the ship had to be towed from the site, about 80kms off the Taranaki coast, to Port Nelson, on the South Island, for repairs. http://www.stuff.co.nz/taranaki-daily-news/news/79381372/maersk-server-to-replace-damaged-pacific-discovery-on-maari-oilfield-upgrade.html
