JAKARTA - The SAR team will continue to search for Titan's lost submersibles as it goes to the ruins of the fireship, although the authorities admit it is complicated and very complex.
First District Commander (D1) US Coast Guard Rear Admiral John Mauger who led the search mission in an interview with CBS said Titan's search also involved international partners.
He said that this would continue to be a complicated search, and his thoughts with the crew and their families.
"This search is'very complex' and partners from the international community are working to find the ship," he said.
He said an aircraft with sonar buoys had succeeded in detecting underwater sounds at the search location, but there was no certainty about that.
"We don't know the source of the sound. There are a lot of metal objects at the location of the fire, which could be a source of noise," he said.
"It was a target, the focus for us with ships deployed nearby. The team will continue to search as long as there is still a chance to survive," he concluded.
As previously reported, the US Coast Guard said on Twitter, a surface ship, Polar Prince, had lost Titan which it launched about an hour and 45 minutes after starting a dive towards the location of the ruins on Sunday morning.
