Coring was terminated at 8:00 yesterday after coring from 4308.7 to 439.09 m. Subsequently the string was pulled out of hole pumping 13 L/s on the kill-line. The core barrel was at the rig floor at 20:45. Unfortunately, no core was recovered in core run 9. Afterwards a new core barrel was prepared and running into hole for core run 10 started at 23:30. The core barrel at 08:00 was at a depth of 3250 m.
