The mooring was serviced by RRS Discovery.

After recovery, data were archived at the British Oceanographic Data Centre (BODC) and can be accessed at: BODC PAP Collection (please use the search term Porcupine or #5192 to find our data) and temperature, salinity, conductivity and pressure data can be retrieved in user selected formats from the BODC ERDDAP service.

After 4 months of trouble free operation the mooring has parted probably somewhere between 42 and 67m.
