In marine engineering and construction, no-one can Tidewater Marine Tows Mobile Supply Vessel offer more creativity than DeLong. This has been Eleven Thousand Miles proven by over thirty years experience in almost every corner of the globe. When drilling first went offshore, the typical rig was a crude platform on pilings. DeLong put the rig on a floating barge, added jackup legs (the jacks were our idea too) and, in 1949, made offshore drilling mobile. Since then, we've covered virtually every as- pect of the marine business: drilling rigs, offshore platforms, piers, bridges, tunnels, outfalls, bulk product terminals to name just a few.

"...SPEEDS A VOYAGE... SAVES FUEL...EASES A CAPTAIN'S NERVES;V ... C. F. Jallorina, Master of the M/S MAYON was describing his ship's newly installed Magnavox Satellite Navigator MX 1142. "Now I'm always certain of my ship's position despite fog or bad weather and the safety en- hancement is a prime concern!' Captain Jallorina added. "Fuel savings by way of navigation efficiencies pay for this automatic Sat-Nav in a short time',' said Paul Hibbert, Service Manager of COLLINS MARINE COR- PORATION, San Francisco. He commented that the officers of the MAYON under- stood the automatic navigation features of Magnavox MX 1142 within an hour. They had become experts in its manual computations and maintenance within the day it was installed, he remarked. Mr. Hibbert noted that the new owner-operators of the MAYON, Maritime Company of the Philippines, Manila, have had six other of their world-wide fleet of vessels outfitted by COLLINS with new navigation equipment in recent months.The same Magnavox Sat- Navs were installed in the line's carriers: ANTIPOLO, PUERTA PRINCESSA, PALAWAN and PHILIPPINE RIZAL. • • • * The photos show Captain Jallorina (at top) describing the operating advantages of the MX 1142.

RECORD RIG TRANSPORTATION — The Dutch semisubmersible heavy-lift vessel Super Servant 1 (see Maritime Reporter August 15, Contact: Stephen T. Matzke (206) 623-1292 1979 issue) recently delivered the mat-supported rig JFP 1, with TWX 910-444-2057 six leg sections, to Kavalla, Greece. The completely self-propelled Super Servant, owned by Wijsmuller B.V., Holland, was loaded with the 5,720-ton rig at Tsu, Japan. Total time for this loading operation was four hours, including resurfacing. The legs of the rig towered 75 meters (about 246 feet) above the waterline, and the sides of the WASHINGTON rig overhung the sides of the ship by 9 meters (about 30 feet) when the Super Servant 1 left Japan for Greece. During the Japan-Suez IRON WORKS leg of the trip, an average daily run of approximately 315 miles was achieved, resulting in a transit time of only 26 days.

Mr. R. H. Dietrich Bethlehem Steel Corporation - Shipbuilding Bethlehem, Pa. 18106 U. S. A.

Dear Bob: m. v. "UNION PRIDE

This will acknowledge receipt of your letter of February 26th, 1979 enclosing invoices for work performed on the above named vessel November/December of last year at Hoboken.

I would like to take this opportunity to express the satisfaction of Owners for the quality of work carried out at Hoboken. The end result was totally satisfactory, and this is a particularly happy note for me as I met with a good deal of opposition to awarding the engine job to Beth. While all concerned had no doubts that the rudder job could easily be handled by Beth, there were a great number of reservations about awarding a major diesel engine repair to Bethlehem Steel.

The satisfactory end result made Beth look good in Owners eyes, who will certainly have no hesitation in doing future diesel engine repairs at Hoboken.

I look forward to doing business with Beth in the future. With kindest personal regards, I remain,

Yours sincerely,

UNION COMMERCIAL STEAMSHIP COMPANY
