In March of 2381 the Esquiline's slipstream drive had been installed and she departed on a test flight. Joining Captain Dasht was Admiral Leonard James Akaar, who had the ship set course to Ingraham B so that he could meet Captain Jean-Luc Picard in person aboard the USS Enterprise-E to offer him a promotion. (TNG novel: Losing the Peace)

By May of that year the Esquiline had been assigned to Project Full Circle. The Esquiline, along with the USS Galen and USS Achilles, was one of the first three ships in the fleet of nine to have its slipstream drive installed. The entire fleet was tasked with exploration of the Delta Quadrant; to ascertain whether the Borg Collective had indeed been completely eliminated at the conclusion of the Borg Invasion; and to attempt to make contact with the Caeliar.
