Final Report, SONS Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill, Gulf of Mexico, 27 April — 24 September 2010<br />

Figure 13. Oil and Debris Mix in Pocket of High Speed Current Buster VOSS<br />

The OSV AHTS Vanguard was expected to remain in port for several days until the weather<br />

improved.<br />

Monday, 10 May 2010<br />

SUPSALV OSR gear and personnel were at this point dispersed between Pensacola, Mobile,<br />

Bayou La Batre, Pascagoula, Gulfport, Ship Island, Slidell, Robert, and Venice.<br />

Eight Class V Vessel Skimmers and crews were pre-positioned as follows: Slidell (qty 2), Ship<br />

Island (qty 2), Pascagoula (qty 2), Bayou La Batre (qty 1), and Pensacola (qty 1), waiting tasking<br />

from the USCG.<br />

There was no operational tasking of SUPSALV Class V Vessel Skimmers because no oil had<br />

been reported in coastal areas adjacent to Slidell, Ship Island, Pascagoula, Bayou La Batre, or<br />

Pensacola.<br />

The OSV AHTS Vanguard (equipped with two Current Buster VOSS) remained in Port<br />

Fourchon due to adverse weather conditions.<br />
