INTRODUCTION The Fairmount Sherpa towed the Ultra Deep Water semi-submersible “Sevan Louisiana” from Singapore to Curaçao (11,500 miles voyage) via Cape of Good Hope, South Africa. During the towage stops were made in Port Louis (Mauritius), Walvis Bay (Namibia) and Port of Spain (Trinidad) to take bunkers and for crew changes. The Sevan Louisiana was built in 2013 by Cosco shipyard in Nantong, China, for UK-based Seadrill Ltd. The self-propelled rig, equipped with eight thrusters, can accommodate up to 150 crew members. After arrival in Curaçao the Fairmount Sherpa performed multiple cargo runs for the Sevan Louisiana. The rig left Curaçao on her own thrusters for her next job in the Gulf of Mexico.
