No, it was built as a cable layer, but was converted to be an offshore support/trenching vessel. We use a digging donald to bury pipelines and ROV's to check the pipelines. It's a support vessel to the pipelaying vessels.

Respect to you guys, many a time I have stood safely onboard giant Oil Platforms and watched boats like yours in these conditions and thought its a gonner just to see you resurface in what seems like minutes later. The video does not fully capture how really wild it can be out there.
