September 2007...Pictures from one of our readers......many thanks
Hi, Thought I would share some Photos with you of recent Haven activities, first we have Taklift 7 in action lifting a P.A.U. (Pre-assembled unit) from a barge moored on the Carr Jetty and then that same P.A.U. in its final home on Berth 1 art South Hook LNG. Then we have frequent Dock visitor Buzzard again at work on the South Hook Jetty, then we have a different view from the Isle of Inishmore of Taklift 7 moored at Port of Pembroke looking toward the project head quarters, and finally a general view of Pembroke Dock from an Ireland bound ferry...........feel free to use then on the site if you think they are good enough..Many thanks Michael Deakin

Fairplay 23.
and the
OAKGARTH....now at Carr Jetty 2nd August 2007 1200BST.....but if you were held on the roads coming into Pembroke Dock by a large load yesterday, we think it was these ships arriving ..... yes we did say by road .....we will keep investigating. Fairplay is shown at berth with Tak Lift 7...did she lift her in? Whoops we were wrong...... again......
With thanks to one of our readers...........in the latest update the two Support vessels shown definitely didn't come by road far too large ....the two vessels that were transported by road were
Svitzer Thunder and
Svitzer Tornado and appeared to be tenders or rope runners, they passed me outside Tesco's just thought I would let you know ...Michael

Tak Lift 7
arrives at Pembroke Dock 13th July 2007
and beginning on or about 17th July 2007 a heavy lift crane barge will be operating at South Hook LNG Terminal (approx position 51°41.’9N 005° 05’W). Tak Lift 7 will be working around the jetty head installing equipment and will be in the area for some weeks. She will deploy anchors and cables into the main channel at times. Tak Lift 7 will operate at right angles to the jetty head and may extend up to 100m off the jetty face.
