Exploration Drilling Operations Set to Begin off Suriname Coast
The Maritime Authority of Suriname has officially announced important information for mariners regarding upcoming drilling activities. The Maersk Developer drillship is scheduled to commence exploration drilling off the coast of Suriname from September 19 to December 3, 2020. The precise drilling location is identified by the coordinates 07° 21’.270 N – 055° 33’.247 W (WGS 84). To ensure the safety of all vessels in the vicinity, a mandated exclusion zone of 1000 meters must be observed around the drillship. In addition, several Offshore Support Vessels (OSVs) will be aiding these crucial operations, including the MV Bourbon Topaz, MV Gerard Tide, MV Felton Tide, and MV National Energy Explorer. Mariners are urged to note the following key points: • Communication between vessels will occur via VHF channels 16 and 77. • A designated SAFETY ZONE of 1000 meters will be maintained around the drilling area. • The Maersk Developer is non-maneuverable and will be exhibiting the necessary navigation signals. All maritime traffic is advised to comply with these directives to ensure safety and efficiency during the drilling process.
