Conf Call notes:

I just took a few notes.
GOM is the pits.
- 29 supply vessles
-- ave dayrate $8214 and util at 80%
-- that is down $260 and was 86%
-- current situation is $7380 and 60%
-- 40% idle * 29 must be 11-12 boats idle (my calculation)
-- new business is $6000 for shallow boats
-- deep boats still at $9000. at yearend, with 3 more deepies, they will have 7 deep supply boats in the gulf. fully utilized. they want 1/3 deepies by Q2-99.

- crew boats
-- util from 89% (Q1) to 90% (Q2) but now is 80%

rest of world is OK. will delay expenses by stop drydocking of idle boats and will redeploy to other location from GOM, if possible.

EPS guidance: They said there is as wide divergence of views from the analysts as they have ever seen. They are most comfortable with the low end, but did not specify a number. I get a range from yahoo of $1.55 to 2.81 from this year. YTD is .93. So it that .62 for the 2nd half?

I sold the balance of my shares.
