Here is a story in one photo. The Reedbuck is engaged in maintaining the heading of an off take tanker which is connected by the bow to an FPSO in the Lula Field offshore Brazil. It has only just been connected so the tanker is still at 90 degrees to the FPSO, and the captain has probably asked his steward to bring up his brown trousers. We can see that the tanker has two stern thrusters, so are they working or have weather conditions overcome them. And the Reedbuck - a nice little NED 8167L anchor-handler built in Poland in 2010 with a handy 13,000 bhp available provided by two Cats.
