Robots appear to be trying to get a block and tackle, block and tackle is used to move something heavy. Also robots just finished attachment something to the top of the BOP. I think they are getting ready to shoot the “junk shot” into the BOP.

What is on screen now, appears to be a parts basket.

It looks like they are putting the busted parts (broken feed lines, hydraulic lines ?) into the basket to be hauled to the surface.

Of course, that’s just AWAG.

UPDATE: ROV on the move.
