OVER THE RAINBOW, oilfield gold

I took this picture using my phone camera. It was the only thing I had at the time, the saturation tech came into the control room and said "there a great photo opportunity"
This taken on the 24Th of all days of December 2007. Here in Egypt, off the Coast of Cairo. This was the plat form we had been working at. We were in the process of leaving to the next project. This is in the Mediterranean Sea.

Buoyancy tank with compensator holding bracket/cage to be placed on 42inch pipeline at 182 FSW. ( feet of seawater) .
The Saturation diver will install this on the submerged p/l so the barge can bring this p/l back to surface for repairs. This isn't done very often. Once the p/l is lay ed at this depth it's seldom picked back up.
