Six Grippers Installed In Kursk

By Wednesday, the divers working on the wrecked Kursk nuclear submarine, have completed the installation of six grippers, Larissa van Seumeren, the official spokesman for the Mammoet company, was quoted as saying. In her words, the pace of works is very slow. But the improvement of weather conditions, which is expected to take place on Wednesday, will allow the divers to instal another six grippers into the sub's hull. According to Larissa van Seumeren, the weather is expected to get even worse on Thursday, and that will make the management to suspend the performance of works. "We will be waiting for favourable weather conditions," she said.
