Jack-up rigs
Jack-up rigs are mobile offshore platforms used for drilling and exploring oil and gas beneath the seabed. They consist of a floating hull that can be towed to a location, equipped with legs that can be lowered to the ocean floor. Once in position, the legs support the rig above the water, allowing drilling equipment to operate safely. Jack-up rigs are typically used in shallow waters and can be moved to different sites as needed. They are essential for accessing underwater resources while providing a stable platform for operations.
