I took this shot on the morning of Sept 3, '08. This is a crane working on an offshore drillship in Nigerian waters. This photo shows the crane tipped over. The cab is caught on a water pipe running along the deck. The crane driver was tossed into the water. He had a broken arm but was OK otherwise. I took this photo from the deck of the Maersk Winner. The Winner has a 200 ton crane and it was thought that we could lift this mess up and set it on the sea bed (the water depth was 2000 ft). We looked at it and decided we did not want to get involved. We backed away and retuned to the Erha field to recommence our work program. - John Guild

Subsea construction. 50 miles offshore Nigeria. 4000 ft water depth. On the deck of the Maersk Winner. This frame had been pulled from the sea bed using the Winner's 200 tom crane. The photo shows the frame being set on the Winner's deck

We were loading cargo on our vessel in Onne Port, Nigeria when this small motor boat flew by. The boat was transporting a butchered goat (not shown).
