XMAS 2007 ON DSV TECHNIP WELLSERVICER

The Oil industry never stops for Xmas, so that means none of the support companies stop for Xmas either. This year was no exception, so i spent Xmas this year on the Dive support vessel Technip Wellservicer. Luckilly for me i was with some top notch colleagues, themselves being away from thier loved ones. As usual we all got on and did it with a sense of humour and lots of smiles. Here are some photos of our Xmas.
