The life raft that evacuated 10 Trinity Liftboats workers in stormy Gulf of Campeche waters had no communication system, said Brenda Taquino of Geokinetics, the company that leased the disabled liftboat.
Pemex aircraft and Mexican naval vessels water craft searched the Gulf for three days until rescuing seven of the workers, one of whom later died in the hospital. The bodies of two New Iberia, La. men were recovered. Another identified worker is still missing.
The workers evacuated the Trinity II about 50 miles off the coast of the state of Campeche Thursday afternoon amidst 20 foot seas and gale force winds from Tropical Storm Nate.
