Offshore Oil Rigs and Platforms

Multi-spindle drilling machines - such as those used to drill multiple holes in say a skateboard for the wheels - have all the drill 'heads' connected by gears to one motor. That way, the gear assembly (a) ensures the all rotate in the same direction and (b) operate at the same speed.

yes ... oil rig for a country is very important n so it will reduce the price of oil

A "cold-stacked" rig is taken out of service for a significant period of time. The rig's crew is laid off, and its doors are welded shut. When a rig is cold stacked, all fixed costs are avoided except for insurance.

The woman might be drilling a hole to create a space for a fastener or anchor, such as a screw or a bolt, which will help secure two objects together. Once she finishes drilling, she will likely insert a screw, which is a type of simple machine known as an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder. This design allows for easier application of force to hold materials together.

"An offshore merchant account is an account that allows the owner to accept credit card payments through a bank not located in the merchant's country. Generally, a merchant would start and offshore account to reduce their tax liability."

Exxon Mobile - Oil rigs in deep sea.

well, if you have a mac computer rigs of rods will already work terrible, it will glitch your files and mess up your computer. Your issue is you have an outdated version of rigs of rods, so the file pack was not made for the version you currently have

When oil rigs are constructed, they are coated with rust inhibitors before they are painted. The structure is constantly monitored for rust and is re-coated where necessary.

The catwalk is used to roll drill pipe, casing and tools from the ground level of the rig to the rig floor which can be from 5' to 30' or more depending on the type of rig. Once on the catwalk pipe or tools are pulled up the V-Door which connects the catwalk to the rig floor.

"Derrick" comes from 'Thomas Derrick', a hangman who invented a type of gallows using a movable beam and pulley system during the Elizabethan era. During his lifetime, Derrick executed over 3,000 people, many of them with his modified gallows device, and the supporting framework for his gallows came to be known as a derrick. The term was adopted to describe cranes and other lifting devices which used a similar support mechanism.

Deepest vertical well = 35,050ftTVD and 35,055ftMD, operating in 4,130 feet of water.

Longest extended reach well = 40,320ftMD with a 35,770ft horizontal section.

Deepest working water depth = 10,011ft.

An uncontrolled release of hydrocarbons ignited on the drill floor. Primary well control was provided by the completion fluid, but this was being changed out during normal testing operations. Primary well control was then the cement job on the liner which was woefully inadequate in design (BP US) and execution (Halliburton). With no primary well control, then the rig relied on secondary well control, the blowout preventer (Transocean). This also failed. Due to the explosion, damage and loss of the Deepwater Horizon there was no way to recover control. Therefore, tertiary well control was implemented; drilling a relief well into the toe of the uncontrolled well and killing it from the bottom.

The drilling rig was not given a name but is simply referred to as "the Spindle top drilling rig".

He got a Community service order after pleading guilty to charges after a fight. He left the Army and was training to work on offshore oil rigs. He deserves the Victoria Cross.

So you will know what to do when there's a fire and save your life instead of panicking and running around on fire

Well depending on materials at hand. mix up a slug in a shotgun barrel or sweep on slug pit

Or flocculant.......and something. grainy such as Pecan shell. or mica. this along with a high rotation rate off bottom or simply reciprocate the string can be helpful

A doctor is available on an oil rig. He will treat you for anything from a light headache to a severe injury for which there is helicopter evacuation.
