Yes there are, but the good old Bucentaur is still doing her job, now for Fugro.
Don’t know if the still use the very simple and effective motion compensation system she originally was equipped with though.
Here is an even older core driller for Fugro, the Mariner, seen at Loyang Base, Singapore, 01. Oct. 2014:
Originally built for J.Lauritzen as the Kaisa Dan for the Greenland trade in 1962. The distance between frames below main deck was only a foot or so. On my last inspection she was still in sound condition. She had the same Dutch Captain for years, from her conversion to a geotechnical core drillier.
I believe she has been scrapped by now?
Correction: She is still alive, but heading for Chittagong right now: https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/details/ships/shipid:418400/mmsi:356296000/imo:5179208/vessel:MARINER
PS> OK, she has probably been beach by now. She was a ship with character, but unable to compete with newer and better equipped vessels in today’s market. She will be missed by many who have had the honour of working on her, both in her days as an Arctic and Antarctic supply vessel and later as a mini -drillship.
