13/03/2023, Port of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Islas Canarias, Spain.
Bear with me, while I explain how these Scottish truck drivers found themselves delivering equipment to an oil drilling ship here at Las Palmas.
Since the the oil price plunge of 2014-2016 - the biggest drop in oil prices in modern history - primarily caused by an oversupply in the market, most oil majors and prospectors found themselves in an uneconomically viable situation.
Over capacity in oil production and especially in oil exploratory drilling forced many of the mega expensive drilling ships to have their drilling contracts forestalled, or at the end of their existing contracts to find no new work.
These ships were being contracted at wild, but necessary prices of up to $500,000 per day, due to huge mortgages on the ships and their initial building costs.
(I believe the most expensive example's building cost was the Billion dollar plus 'Stena Icemax'. See here: flic.kr/p/RZ5QJr )
So, much oil exploration work was being undertaken on the West African coast, and across the Atlantic, offshore Brazil.
As the drilling ships became unemployed, the necessity of finding a suitable, large, deep-water port to keep them safely moored in, and with a pleasant climate to prevent corrosion and humidity damage, and that is where Las Palmas found itself to be the ideal location, at the 'crossroads' of the Atlantic.
In addition, the port has long established and experienced shipyards with specialist engineers and technicians.
The port quickly found itself in great demand for the laid up ships, and as an economic boost, there were lucrative mooring fees, tug requirements, stores, and large engineering projects to be had.
The drilling ships (& oil rigs) require ongoing maintenance and often, modifications to suit each specific drilling contract, both before and after completion.
The 'northern oil capital of Europe' is Aberdeen in Scotland and thus, specialist knowhow, equipment and hauliers are based there.
The result being a regular stream of heavy duty trucks, not least those of Grampian Continental haulage, picking up and delivering equipment to the ships, from all over Europe.
A former, regular driver, and Las Palmas visitor, for Grampian was Rab Lawrence, a well known contributor to Flickr, and a sometime correspondent of mine, although our paths never directly crossed.
Here are a few of his compatriots waiting to have their truck loads discharged, before having to catch the circa 36 hour ferry back to Huelva, or Cadiz, in southern Spain.

Auszeichnung „Dialog Schule – Chemie“ vergeben / Lehrerkongress mit mehr als 300 Besuchern
Bildungsthemen von Berufseinstieg bis Energiedidaktik
Filderstadt – 21. November 2013. Dr. Jürgen Braun, Chemie-Lehrer an der Johanna-Wittum-Schule Pforzheim, hat sich besonders gefreut: Der umtriebige Pädagoge erhielt auf dem diesjährigen Lehrerkongress der chemischen Industrie die Auszeichnung des „Dialog Schule – Chemie“. Zu der Veranstaltung in Filderstadt kamen überwiegend naturwissenschaftliche Lehrer aus ganz Baden-Württemberg. Sie konnten sich über aktuelle Themen aus den Naturwissenschaften ebenso informieren wie über den Berufseinstieg in die Chemie.
An den Ständen von dreißig Ausstellern kamen die dreihundert Besucher mit Ausbildern aus Chemie-Unternehmen, Schulinitiativen oder auch Preisträgern von Jugend forscht und Wettbewerben wie „NANU?!“ ins Gespräch. In den Informationsforen des Lehrerkongresses ging es unter anderem um die Energiewende und die Beiträge der Chemie dazu. Außerdem standen der moderne naturwissenschaftliche Unterricht im „Cyber-Classroom“ und das sichere Experimenten im naturwissenschaftlichen Unterricht auf dem Programm.
Ralf Müller, Geschäftsführer der Chemie-Verbände Baden-Württemberg, machte in seiner Begrüßung deutlich, dass die chemische Industrie beim Experimentieren größten Wert auf Sicherheit lege. „Wir unterstützen die Schulen wo wir können mit unserem Knowhow“, so Müller weiter. Die Chemie-Verbände bieten deshalb spezielle Lehrerfortbildungen an - in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Kultusministerium. Hier lernen Pädagogen, wie spannende Experimente trotz erhöhter Sicherheits- und Dokumentationsvorschriften im Unterricht gelingen.
Auszeichnung „Dialog Schule – Chemie“
Dr. Jürgen Braun, Studiendirektor am beruflichen Gymnasium Johanna-Wittum in Pforzheim, erhielt die mit 500 Euro dotierte Auszeichnung des „Dialog Schule – Chemie“. Sie wird jährlich unter dem Motto „Experimentieren – Begeistern – Vernetzen“ an herausragende Pädagogen im Land vergeben.
Ministerialdirektor Dr. Jörg Schmidt, Amtschef im Kultusministerium in Stuttgart, hob bei der Übergabe der Auszeichnung die vielfältigen Initiativen und Aktivitäten von Braun hervor: er hat unter anderem die Aktion und die Internetseite „modernebiotechnologie.de“ ins Leben gerufen, um mit Schülermentoren und Experimentierkoffern einfache biotechnologische Versuche an allen Schulen im Land möglich zu machen. Mit vielfältigen Kontakten zu anderen Schulen im In- und Ausland und zur Industrie hat er ein umfassendes Netzwerk aufgebaut. So sind beispielsweise Schüleraustauschprojekte mit spezialisierten Hochschulen in den USA in dieser Form einzigartig.
Dr. Jürgen Braun sagte zu seiner Motivation, es sei für ihn wichtig „dass ein Funke überspringt. Ich sehe oft an den Schülern, mit denen ich zusammen arbeite, dass eine besondere Chance sie dazu bringt, über sich hinaus zu wachsen und sich weiter zu entwickeln.“
Zur Auszeichnung
„Dialog Schule – Chemie: Experimentieren, Begeistern, Vernetzen“
Die Auszeichnung wird verliehen durch die Chemie-Verbände Baden-Württemberg an herausragende Pädagogen-Persönlichkeiten im Bereich der Naturwissenschaften.

Zamias ...ancient plants that created vast forests over 20 millions of years ago. They grow very slowly, at 2m high they could be around 2000 years old. This variety only grows around and in the Jarrah forest regains of Western Australia's southwestern corner.
Zamias or Cycads are a ancient group of plants which look palm-like.
They have male and female plants.
The female plants produce large, pineapple-like cones containing large red-orange seeds.

iayu (zamia palm) fruit is similar to a pineapple and in the past wadjellas
assumed they could eat the wida (nuts).
When they did, it had adverse effects because they did not leach the poison out.
By cracking the kernel and grinding it into paste,
2kg of food would be secured for making damper or porridge.
It could only be consumed after leaching it in water for up to a week.
The wida was also used for stunning fish.
The palm fern was used for mia mias (shelters)
and fish gathering and the fluff was used in firemaking
and for hygienic purposes.

In the early days, photo retouching was done tediously by hand using special paint, very fine brushes and a magnifying glass. Todays technology offers endless imaginative possibilities.

Built 2002
Original build time: two days
Engine: 750c.c. Suzuki four-cylinder
Top speed: 150+mph
Saline Warrior's transformation from a three-wheeled economy car to a 150mph-plus racer in just two days is almost unbelievable, but thanks to Saunders' imagination and knowhow, this is exactly what happened to this Reliant Rialto.
When filming for the B.B.C. T.V. series Panic Mechanics, Saunders was tasked with modifying the 1989 model to win a drag race. His solution was to emulate the appearance of a classic salt lake racer, with a lowered roofline, lengthened nose cone and smooth wheel discs, while a turbocharger was fitted for filming. After a frantic two-day build, the streamlined Saline Warrior was victorious on the drag strip.
Saunders sold Saline Warrior to French speed enthusiasts Les Triplettes de Bonneville. Over four years, they built a full space-frame racing car chassis, with four wheels rather than three and a fiery 750c.c. Suzuki motorcycle engine. Saline Warrior was then shipped to America to take part in the legendary Bonneville Speed Week. Unofficially breaking the 750c.c. speed record with a run of 143mph, this unlikely racer has since topped more than 150mph.
Apart from being resprayed in team colours, Saline Warrior looks the same. When the owner bought the creation at the Beaulieu Autojumble, he had never been to Bonneville and had no thoughts of starting a race team, but it caught his imagination and Les Triplettes de Bonneville has raced there every year since 2009. They hold 29 world records and are the most successful Bonneville team to come out of France, all because of the inspiration that Saline Warrior gave them.
