Where did the romance go?

Wondering what the ship in the background, the Well Servicer, does?

Apparently it's an Oil and Gas Well Intervention Vessel - which means it, er ... services wells. A bit like Take a Break magazine, or I Can't Believe It's Not Butter, it tells it rather too much like it is.

Whatever happened to giving ships names with a whiff of mystery, like the Jean de la Lune?

I mean, if things continue in this vein, they'll have to rename the Royal Yacht Britannia: something like Rich Pointless Toffs' Playground perhaps. Please feel free to make your own suggestions.
