Semi-submersible Platforms
Semi-submersible platforms are large, floating structures used to extract oil and gas from beneath the seabed. They are stabilized by submerged pontoons and flexible legs, allowing them to remain stable even in rough seas. These platforms are anchored to the ocean floor with mooring lines, providing a stable working environment for drilling and production equipment. Their design lets them operate in deeper waters where fixed platforms aren't feasible, offering safety, flexibility, and stability for offshore exploration and extraction activities.
