Ancient Relics Found in Subsea Pipeline Route

the ancient port of Dor, where hidden in the seabed lie the vestiges of marine traders throughout the ages - from the Phoenicians to the Romans.To minimize damage to such relics, the Israel Antiquities Authority has been working over the past year with the Leviathan field's operator, Texas-based Noble Energy.A team spent weeks scuba diving in the warm crystal clear water off the beach, dispersing silt to uncover ancient artifacts. A remote-operated robot was used for searches in deeper water.They found earthenware jugs, anchors and the remains of wrecked ships, setting new guidelines for similar future

Subsea Vessel Ops Predicted to Grow Over Coming Years

well as IRM-related vessel spending. The majority of pipeline related projects are expected to occur in Iran and Kuwait. Field development-related vessel expenditure contributes marginally to the region’s spending over 2015-2019 with the exception of deepwater offshore gas field developments in Noble Energy’s Leviathan field. North America North America is a large, mature subsea market with deepwater developments predominantly in the US Gulf of Mexico.  Over the next five years, there will be an increased portion of subsea developments in water depths beyond 1,500m.
