Can you identify this Wellington?

I have tried to identify this Wellington on another forum, with no luck. Can anyone here help?
These 2 photos are from Mike Morton's collection. They are of a Wellington taken at Riyan, Oman in February 1948. It was apparently used to transport geologists during oil exploration. The nose turret is faired over, like a T10, and I see a roundel under the wing. There is something written on the cockpit side, but I cannot make it out. Can anyone throw any light on which Wellingtons were used for this job at that time?
Thanks
Laurence
