This was an interesting project from the start, GET North wanted to add a fountain display in the centre of the River Tyne as part of an arts showcase which would be happeninovr the summer, NESB were tasked with providing the marine support for the project, this involved assisting with the construction and mobilisation of the pontoon . Once in position in the centre of the river NESB were to provide a support vessel for weekly maintenance periods untill completion of the project. On completion of the project NESB were again able to providsupport vessels in the deconstruction of the pontoon. Overall this was a challenging and unique project which was interesting in the fact that this is the first time aything like this has been done.
