Dear Sirs:
Deloitte & Touche LLP ("D & T") was previously the
principal accountants for Marine Shuttle Operations Inc.
(MSO or the "Company") and under date of March 18,
1999 we reported upon the consolidated financial statements
of the Company as at December 31, 1998 and 1997 and for
the year ended December 31, 1998 and the period to
December 31, 1997. Our appointment as principal
accountants was terminated by the Company on May 17,
1999. We have read the Company's statements included in
Item 4 of its Form 8-K dated May 17, 1999 ("Item 4"). We
agree with the statements in Item 4, except as follows:
D & T is not in a position to agree or disagree with the
Company's statement in the second sentence of Item 4 (a)
part (i) to the effect that the discontinuance of our
appointment "was approved by the Registrant's Board of
Directors upon the recommendation of the Registrant's
Audit Committee".
The independent auditors' report issued under date of
March 18, 1999 contained an explanatory paragraph
concerning the "substantial doubt about [the Company's]
ability to continue as a going concern." Except for a
reference to Note 1 to the Company's financial statements,
the report did not contain any reference to the fact that the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern "is
dependent on the ability of the Registrant to obtain
financing" as has been stated in the last sentence of Item 4
(a), part (iii).
Yours truly,
/s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP
