            <div>I sure hope not.  Back in the PIPE days we had a
              maintenance agreement which had a steam out in 24 hours
              from New Cal (Il de Ray/Alcatel ship).  4,500km from Guam
              is around Cairns and it's pretty benign.</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>That should only take about 2-3
              days steaming and water depth is between between
              2,000-3,000m from memory.  Easy lift/splice/drop. Should
              be restored fully in a week (assuming mtce agreement is
              still in place and even if it's not it would just cost a
              few more $$ normally).  Rumour has it there is a pump
              failure in a repeater somewhere off PNG so they might
              claim the force majure on that one amd repair it while
              they are down and the ship is steaming/on mtce. That's
              another few days and lift/replace.</div>
