The Filipino Channel
Sunday, 27 Jan 2013
After the recent upgrade of the television system on board FFPV Nordnes, the previously installed TFC (The Filipino Channel) was not working anymore.
Thorough investigation, creativity and hard work made apparent that technically there was no problem getting the signal back to work. Joint efforts were made to achieve a suitable solution for getting the channel back in working order again.
Following steps were undertaken to successfully re-install TFC:
The OCM from the sister vessel FFPV Stornes was consulted for advise on the configuration of the satellite dishes on Nordnes.
OCM from Nordnes arranged renewal of the subscription package and his wife prepaid the subscription fee for TFC (EUR 250 p/a).
ROV Pilots on Nordnes made minor adjustments to the newly installed TV system allowing the reception of TFC from Atlantic Bird-3 Sattelite.
All in all this is a perfect example of "Another Job Well Done", by one team, for one team.
Certificate !

Thanks a lot for the beautiful gifts!
Thursday, 28 Jul 2011
Dear Nordnes crew,
Thanks a lot for the beautiful gifts we received today on behalf of our daughter Elea. She is very very happy with it. Pink absolutely is her's, and my wife's, favourite colour, so choices were perfect. :-)
Elea is doing fine, today 12 days old. My wife Katinka is also recovering fine from surgery, although it will still take some weeks before fully recovered.
Me, I am doing perfectly fine, how could it be different, having 2 beautiful women around in my house all day long. Couldn't have wished for more.
Wish you all the best!!!
Kind regards, Ronald, Katinka and Elea
Married!
Mat and Justyna married on 2nd July. Congratulations on behalf of Nordnes crew!
Hello everyone!!
We (Justyna and myself) would like to thank you all for your sincere
wishes and a BRILLIANT movie. We watched it the day after the wedding
and all the guest enjoyed it very very much.
Justyna says that the problems with my ears are getting worse and worse
;) Apparently I'm not able to hear and carry out simple commands
- but that's what happens when you get married I guess ;)
Anyway. Many THANKS for the whole Nordnes crew and all the effort!!
We are flying tomorrow on our honeymoon to Fuerteventura so expect the
next pictures from there (from the beach - not from bed, so don't worry
;)
Best wishes for you take care and see you soon!
Justyna and Mateusz
PS. Thx for keeping the really embarrassing stories onboard ;)
Happy birthday!

A tribute to Baas Mol
Thursday, 03 Mar 2011
At the beginning of Februari 2011 our Project Manager Leo Mol retired from active service.
Not everybody was able to attend his farewell party, therefore some contributions were made.
Many people claim that Leo is the kind of person one could write a book about.
We tried, but ran out of time, so we made it a glossy magazine. And a movie. And a speech...
