[Platforms] Turkey Bilim-2

[Marilynn Sørensen]

Dear Platform group and Volodymyr,
 
We have been notified that the Turkish vessel Bilim had a name change to Bilim-2. The call sign has not been changed but note that the ICES/NODC/C174 lists have an incorrect call sign which should be corrected.
 
The code remains 89BL as there is no flag or hull change.

Comment: Call sign corrected from TAAB to TCBU3. Lloyds says the name was Bilim from 01 January 1983 to before 20 March 2006, whereas the Institute says 2005. Used 2005.

Cheers,
Marilynn
