As of recent estimates, there are approximately 200 oil and gas platforms located in the waters around the United Kingdom. These rigs are primarily concentrated in the North Sea, which has been a significant area for offshore oil and gas exploration since the 1960s. The number of operational rigs can fluctuate due to market conditions and technological advancements.

Where are most oil rigs located?

In the United States, the oil rigs that operate offshore are typically too far away to see. There are many work over or drilling rigs in the Texas, Oklahoma and California but they may only be active in one place for a short time. I have flown over the Gulf Coast, and seen from the air what appears to be oil rigs, but they may have been producing platforms. It is far easier to see the pumping units, (pumpjacks) as they are very common in Bakersfield, California.
