In October 2012, Hallin Marine started a 30-day ROV support and inspection project on Donghae field offshore South Korea. The Kendal was chosen for her suitability to the conditions of the environment. Her structural design and onboard equipment are ideal for the provision of full IRM support and services in the harsh weather conditions for which the Donghae field is known.
