Shipbuilding in Mobile. Ala. delivered

M/V Juanita Candies to Otto Candies,

Inc. The vessel immediately departed

Mobile enroute to Fouchon, La., where it went on long-term charter to Conoco in support of the company's deepwater drilling program. Both Juanita Candies and sister vessel Agnes Candies have gone to work on high profile, deep water drilling projects. According to opera- tions personnel from Candies, the ves- sels have been adept at performing all missions very well. In particular, their customers comment positively in regard to the vessels' fast cargo pumping rates, station keeping ability and stability in high seas.

The Agnes Candies crew reported that the first time the vessel was called upon to unload in 10 to 12-ft. seas in the d/p mode, they experienced heavy rolling in the beam sea. The flume tank was filled to the required level, the roll smoothed out and the Agnes Candies proceeded to unload.
