    The fully crewed 10,000 HP AHTS Resolve Pioneer set out from Resolve’s U.S. Gulf Coast Response Facility in Mobile, AL and assisted Transocean by serving as the support vessel and dive platform for the retrieval of 6 thrusters from the oil rig Celtic Sea which is offshore in the Gulf of Mexico.

The 6 thrusters, each weighing in at over 30,000 lbs were successfully retrieved and placed in the cradles that Resolve had fabricated only days earlier.
