Due to a technical malfunction
of the manipulator arm of the ROV, the recovery of the
engine is delayed.
An
attempt to recover the engine was first planned on March
17th.We will have another try sometimes in the autumn 2010.
In march 2010, the NTNU vessel "Gunnerus" located the missing engine from Skua
L2896, earlier recovered from Orkdalsfjord. The engine was located at a depth of
370 meters. Even if it seems that the engine is somewhat reduced in quality, it
still contains important parts for our project like exhaust manifold and forward
partof the engine mount. The propeller was still attached to the engine.
