Oil rig

An oil rig is a large structure used to extract oil and natural gas from beneath the ocean floor. It can be anchored to the seafloor or floater, and contains drilling equipment, living quarters, and processing facilities. The rig drills deep wells to access underground reservoirs of hydrocarbons, which are then transported to the surface for refining. Oil rigs are essential for producing the energy that powers many aspects of daily life, and their design varies depending on the water depth and project scope. They operate in challenging environments, adhering to strict safety and environmental standards.
