A Scottish ship has joined the rescue mission for the Titan submersible as time runs out to save the lives of the five people on board
.
Deep Energy has been recruited for the rescue mission due to the extreme depths it is capable of operating in. The vessel is used to support subsea developments in waters of up to 9843ft deep and was specifically designed to operate in the North Sea, as well as the Atlantic basin. Deep Energy is described as the "fastest and one of the largest and most capable pipelay vessels ever built" in the industry.
Three British passengers are on board, including Pakistani British-based businessman Shahzada Dawood and his 19-year-old son, Sulaiman Dawood.
