Floating sub broken in two in a clean cut.

Pulling out of hole was completed around 20:30 o'clock last night. A floating sub in the BHA had broken apart in a clean cut. The rest of the drill string remains in the hole, consisting of drill bit, motor, stabilizer and a part of the floating sub. Fishing tools are being sent to Krafla from Reykjavik. Currently the weather conditions are bad with snow blizzard and roads closed in the northern part of the country.
