Listen to your own words GF....known position
Just before contact was lost the transponder noted a course change which would have taken it to BIBAN within visual range of the oil rig and Incidentally 15 minutes after that last contact at 1:55 LT there was a small seismic event "not of seismic origin" detected by two Chinese seismological survey stations based in Malaysia. They identified the seismic event between IGARI and BIBAN.
