Description:

At Statfjord Oil Field in the Norht Sea, approaching the loading buoy OLS-B, passing the loading buoy Statfjord SPM-C which is not longer in use.
Vigdis was fixed for a Statfjord-Milford Haven/Pembroke cargo and we (Gerd Knutsen) for a Statfjord-Rotterdam cargo. But the buyer og the Milford Haven/Pembroke cargo don\'t allow tankers with age 15 years or above. After a couple of days of investigation they found that Vigdis was 11 days (!!!) to old! So they changed her onto the Rotterdam cargo and Gerd to the Milford Haven/Pembroke cargo. 11 days...

Bildet er bra, historien er fantastisk. Virkeligheten overgår fantasien. Ikke bare er 15 års kravet strengt, men 11 dager for gammel?
Trives du der ute?

Hehe... Vi var ganske oppgitt vi også når vi fikk den endelige beskjeden. Det blei jo litt venting for oss også. Får si som kapteinen sa i telefonen til kapteinen på Vigdis; det er godt å være på litt nyere tonnasje! Gerd er jo tross alt bare (...) 12 år! Hehe...
Trives bra. Det er en fin trade å være på. Må sies at jeg savner Gandria innimellom, men nå er jo ikke Gandria i Høegh lenger heller...
Det skjer litt mer på Gerd, rekker mange turer på en måned.
