Let's check out how a drilling rig works!

Floating oil rigs, marvels of modern engineering, are designed to operate in deep water environments, where traditional fixed rigs cannot reach. These massive structures, anchored securely to the ocean floor, extract oil from beneath the seabed, often in harsh and challenging marine conditions. | Interesting Engineering

How oil rigs are built? Building oil rigs involves several complex steps: Planning and Design: Engineers and geologists conduct surveys to identify potential drilling sites. The rig design is tailored to the specific conditions of the site, such as water depth and environmental factors. Fabrication: Major components like the platform, derrick, and living quarters are manufactured in specialized shipyards. These components are built using high-strength steel and other materials to withstand harsh
