On behalf of the INAF Gravitational Astronomy group.\n\n We report on further observations performed with the VLT Survey Telescope (VST) at ESO-Paranal equipped with OMEGACAM (FOV=1 square degree) to improve the coverage of the\n+skymap of the advanced LIGO/Virgo trigger G184098.\n\n Since September 17, the area of the sky covered by VST observations increased to ~90 square degree, overlapping the 54 square degree observed on September 16. These new se\n+ts of observations were taken in the r-sloan band and 80 sec exposure time each and have been performed on 17/09, 21/09, 24/09 and 30/09.\n\nThe 3 x 3 degree pointings are centered on the following coordinates RA, Dec (J2000):\n\n03:48:53        -56:29:24\n03:58:22        -59:24:00\n04:30:46        -64:21:00\n04:53:29        -66:20:24\n05:22:57        -67:30:00\n05:58:00        -70:43:48\n06:34:45        -70:43:48\n07:47:40        -70:38:24\n08:05:57        -67:31:12\n08:38:40        -67:31:12\n\nThe image analysis is ongoing.\nFurther observations of these fields are planned for one more night.",
