There are Tuna all over that area.
Mars and Ursa are just 6.5 miles from each other.
There is also a drillship about 1 mile from Mars.
And the ATP Titan is about 8 miles South of Ursa.

The Tuna don't sit close to the platforms, till night time.
Then they ease under the lights.
During the day, we see them busting the water about a mile or two from the platform.
