TITAN worked closely with Saint

Lucia Air and Sea Ports Authority (SLASPA), and local contractors to safely complete the fuel removal opera- tion mitigating the risk of an environ- mental incident. The removal of fuel and other contaminants onboard the vessel was performed by a team of seven

TITAN divers working from a supply vessel moored over the casualty. The ves- sel functioned as dive platform as well as place to receive and store the contami- nated bunker fuel. While divers worked in near perfect visibility in turquoise
