Top 15 Biggest Oil Rigs 

the Thumbnail is the Arasaka Super Carrier Kujira from 2077

My husband currently works for Shell & has worked on Perdido, Olympus & Petronius... We have some truly awesome pics of how massive these rigs really are... It's mind blowing.

It appears the narrator doesn't differentiate or know the difference between a drilling rig and a production platform and has little knowledge about the subject. Just calling an offshore structure an 'oil rig' without differentiating does a disservice to the people and technology. Some clarifying points. The Bluewhale II is a semisubmersible drilling rig also known as a mobile offshore drilling unit (MODU). The Troll platform is a gravity base production platform with a drilling package, it was (or still is) the tallest construction ever built by man. The Prirazlomnaya is a shallow arctic water mobile submersible (sits on the sea bed) drilling rig (another MODU) with limited production capability. The Abgami FPSO is a floating production storage and offloading platform (not a MODU) that produces oil from pre-drilled subsea wells drilled by other mobile offshore drilling units. Its injection lines pump produced water from the wells back into the reservoir to maintain pressure while oil is produced. Perdido is a spar production platform with drilling package. The Olympus is a TLP production platform with a drilling package and tender assisted drilling (TAD). The Hybernia is a gravity based production platform with a dual drilling package. Petronius is a compliant leg production platform with a drilling package. Its claim to be the tallest structure is disputed because it can only remain standing when in water unlike the Troll platform which was built to its height then moved to location before being ballasted down to rest on the sea floor. The Berkut is a gravity base platform set in 35 meters of water depth so although the heaviest it by no means the tallest. It has a drilling package but is usually accompanied by a tender assist drilling rig (TAD). Similar to the Hybernia platform in Canada, the rig has a concrete and steel ice protection structure. Top Fives, try talking to someone who knows about offshore oil production and drilling platforms before you post, it would be far more educational.

Some of them are not oil rigs but just some oil platforms, Drilling rigs drill wells and platforms produce after the oil wells are drilled.

One of the best, Reputed nd largest oilmajor company in the world. I'm very proud to be a employee of this unique coy as well.

You can find many offshore oil rigs off the coast Sarawak, Malaysia 🇲🇾. It have tons offshore oil rigs off of Malaysia in the Southeast Asia. 🇲🇾

PURE DRIVEL! Lots of nice pictures though.

Imagine living on one in a zombie apocalypse

Is that Charlie Sheen doing the narration? Winning!

Very impressive

Chris Kane showed Cypress Hill how to be insane in the membrane.

Thanks for the video, Charlie Sheen

Thank you for the update, Top Fives..!! I wonder what will happen to the rigs when the oil below runs out.

Most of the pictures shown are wrong and the narrator has NO IDEA about the oil industry. Not a single facility is properly described.

Huge activity engineering skills

WoW! 😯

Passando para prestigiar aquele super like no canal 👍✌

I watched the bullwinkle being built

Minor error on No.6. The 1st image they showed was PAZFLOR which is moored off Angola.

Aasta hansteen? Worlds largest spar platform

Thanks,

I'm very Big fan of you

5:20 It’s the cigarettes and ashtrays in the lounge area in a highly flammable oil rig that might worry me a bit! 😂

900 m tall?

Got my minicopter ready

HOLY WOW 😮😮😮

I need a job

I want to live on that Norwegian rig. Looks dope as hell.

Did it for years until our helicopter crashed breaking my back and crushing my spinal cord. This was the best job I ever had and I so miss all them crazy guy that I worked with.

Ocean GreatWhite? These are all production platforms/vessels most of which do not have drill rigs

All this oil means I can continue to drive a nice big petrol engined Subaru for many more years to come.

Very dangerous, but it pays very well.

What was the thumbnail, Instead of a oil rig.

*OIL!?*

Hell how you get out and live? Im deathly afraid of water definitely not a job for me lol 🤣

NEWFOUNDLAND is where Hibernia is. Was that too hard to say, why did you omit that?

The thumb nails crazy I didn’t see no cyber punk

Why is everyone hung up on zombies ?

我好喜欢这个频道的节目哦💖🌷💖🌷😳😳😳

Very informative 🔎🔍🌐

This is not an oil rig, it is a production platform.

Tell me how many times he said oil

COUNTER LARGE

Thumbnail clickbait?

#15 is a production platform not an oil rig ...

No Bigfoot? Or Jack/st. Malo?

The thumbnail is of the Kujira supercarrier from Cyberpunk 2077 - super misleading

Enclave future bases 😎 🇺🇸🇪

You have horrible mic settings

Hi

thumbnail tho

海上石油钻探的未来 🇨🇳

Oil

America government watching this video rn U.S.A did you say OIL

Vodkanockers

These will make nice reefs for fish when we no longer need oil.

Op

As someone that works in the industry, the vast majority of this video is complete bullstuff. The creator of this video has no clue how the offshore oil and gas industry works nor even as simple as the key terminology.

中华人民共和国沿海南海有更多的近海石油钻井。 🇨🇳

nice clickbait thumbnail. your preview image is a fictional ship that only exists in a fucking videogame

Aren’t y’all top 5’s , why tf is it 15 top oil rigs 🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨

The Russian platform in the arctic may be big, but it hardly unique. In Alaska, both onshore and offshore, companies have been in the arctic for more than 40 years drilling and producing oil. In fact, a large part of the techniques used to produce oil today were developed there.

Greta thunberg: 🤚🙆🤚

Second ❣️

First

This guy doesnt know what he's talking about. It seems he left out the Hebron platform, not far from Hibernia
