offshore drilling platforms
Offshore drilling platforms are large structures used to extract oil and natural gas from beneath the ocean floor. These platforms are equipped with drilling rigs, pumps, and safety systems, and they can be anchored to the seabed or floating. They operate in deep or shallow waters, enabling access to underwater reserves that are otherwise unreachable. Offshore platforms are complex facilities designed to withstand harsh ocean conditions, and they play a critical role in energy production. The extracted resources are then transported to shore for refining and distribution, supporting global energy needs.
