SAMSON on the Tees 24.07.13

SAMSON towing very long pipe named as BRIDLINGTON PIPE up to Able UK Billingham 01.08.13. The tug RONJA had delivered the pipe to South Bank a couple of days ago.

It's for a storm water sewer outfall - should be about 1km long.

Thanks for the info Patrick,I assume that the MTS VIGOUR and SGT PEPPER are working out of Bridlington,the pipe is due to leave here in about 8/10 days time.
