How do the drilling rig’s legs support the rig?

Jack-up rig legs are towering, steel structures that extend from the sea's surface to the seabed, supporting the entire rig like a colossal tripod.
Each leg is a marvel of engineering, often extending over 400 feet in length, designed to be raised or lowered depending on the water depth.
These legs are equipped with massive spud cans or footings that anchor firmly into the sea floor, providing stability against the relentless forces of waves and wind.
The legs are constructed from an intricate lattice of high-strength steel, creating a resilient framework that can withstand immense pressures.
Each leg, with its complex design and robust construction, plays a crucial role in the exploration and extraction of underwater resources, standing as a beacon of industrial prowess and technological advancement.

Where are you from and which sea is this ?

[@offshoreoilrig1]

I am from Iran and it's Persian Gulf

[@siddharthshankardash3960]

@@offshoreoilrig1 so which ocean is this ?
And from how many years you are working in this field ?

[@offshoreoilrig1]

@@siddharthshankardash3960 is not ocean it's Persian Gulf sea. I am working in offshore field near 15 years

@@offshoreoilrig1 is there requirements for non-technical position, or only Btech students can apply and elegible for this ?

@@siddharthshankardash3960 It is almost parallel, that is, half of the academics and half are interested in this work, and they go to the rig and learn the work step by step.
