12/10-14

Position: 88 58.6' N, 175 47' E, temperature - 19 C, air pressure 1015 hPa, wind 10 knots from N. Ice drift 0.2 knot towards N. Shooting seismic reflection continuously. We pump
the 40 liter air reservoir up to 200 bar every two hours. A constant 130 bar pressure on the airgun is maintained via a pressure reduction valve. All instruments work well. As we are over a deep plain and the operation runs well, we declared Sunday as a day for rest - the first in six weeks. We passed 89 degrees north by mid-day and the drift direction is near due north.
