Thanks Frank for the update. I think it was the 'extended' accommodation block which threw me !!

Hi Everybody,
I think that she was built by IHC for Spliethoff of Amsterdam. She is used by Allseas also as a training vessel for the pipe welding operations and so on. If you want to know about laying pipe at sea then those are the boys to talk to!

Regards Frank

I saw her in Alicante recently. A strange looking vessel - couldn't quite make out whether she was cargo or something else.
