Notes: Seafloor depth = prospectus water depth plus 11.0 m adjustment from water line to rig floor (i.e., drillers depth). * = Details on the Juan de Fuca remedial cementing operations can be found at iodp.tamu.edu/scienceops/expeditions/juan_de_fuca.html. All costs associated with the Juan de Fuca "remedial cementing" program will be calculated in a separate IPE and are not included in this Pacific equatorial 2 IPE. The Juan de Fuca program is included in the operating plan only because it impacts operations. APC = advanced piston corer, XCB = extended core barrel, APCT-3 = advanced piston corer temperature-3 tool, DVTP = Davis-Villinger Temperature Probe, triple combo = triple combination, FMS-sonic = Formation MicroScanner-sonic tool string, VSP = vertical seismic profile, VSI = Vertical Seismic Imager, DP = dynamic positioning, POOH = pull out of hole.
