An elevated view captures the port side of a large, red-hulled tanker engaged in an offshore operation near Orimedu, Nigeria. The vessel's deck is densely populated with a network of red and yellow-piped cargo lines, valves, and various deck equipment. A prominent crane with its boom extended is positioned mid-ship. A large black hose extends from the ship's port side, connecting to a long, floating boom system in the blue-green ocean water. One individual, wearing blue-green workwear, is visible on the port side deck, near a yellow-railed platform, observing or attending to the hose connection point. Yellow bollards and safety markings, including a "SAFETY FIRST" sign, are visible on deck. The sky is partly cloudy with blue patches, and the sea exhibits moderate wave activity.
