FALMOUTH, UK – Coastline Surveys has completed a pre-decommissioning environmental survey for Energy Resource Technology (UK), a division of HELIX.

The program was in preparation for decommissioning of the Camelot CA production platform and associated subsea infrastructure in block 53/1a in the UK southern North Sea.
