Notes: Seafloor depth is prospectus water depth plus 11.0 m adjustment from water line to rig floor (i.e., drillers depth). San Diego port call is assumed to be 1.0 day. Cementing includes ~24 h of contingency time split evenly between the two holes. Transit speed from San Diego to Hole U1301B is assumed to be 9.0 kt due to opposing current. All other transits assume 10.5 kt.
