    The Lima Platform may be coming to the end of its lifespan, but it's clear that the legacy of these offshore oil rigs will live on. It's amazing to think about the impact that these structures have had on the world, and the incredible feats of engineering that make them possible.

      They're legacy will kill on, and keep killing after we're gone, as a matter of fact, we'll never know the extent of the damage we've done, but if anything manages to live on, they will.

    I worked on a drilling rig for 6years,the deepest we drilled was 7500feet. I was a chain hand roughness, technical term operational engineer in se NEW MEXICO AROUND ROSWELL, ARTESIA, HOBBS, JAL. I HAD A SPINNING CHAIN BRAKE AND DANCE CROSS MY BODY. I THANK THE ONLY TRUE GOD THAT I'M STILL ALIVE TODAY. MY FEET GOT TOO COLD, NOW I HAVE NERVE DAMAGE TO MY LEFT ARCH FOOT TODAY. WHEN I THINK OF IT, I HAVE A MELTDOWN THAT COULD HAVE DIED THAT DAY. IT WAS A DEATH TRAP WOW😢

    Amazing to watch however I've worked in the SNS for 20 years and none of the platforms are what you'd call giant. They're all small and easily lifted but most heavy lift barges. The platforms in the central north or northern North sea are giants in comparison. Take a look at the Troll platform for example. The challenge I think for SNS is the age of the platforms. Some dating from the late 1960's. No thought how they would remove them and many built piecemeal in situ. Compared to some Lima actually looked to be in pretty decent condition.

    Your title is a misleading lie. Furthermore, you have just reposted a video that has already been uploaded by another channel. I don't know how the rights to media work on TH-cam but I do know that there has been a huge spike in the number of pirated video being uploaded. I personally don't agree with this practice, especially because for one thing the quality is NEVER as good as the original. I hope TH-cam does something to put a stop to this problem.

      Usually whatever you pump out you put back in. For example it if I'm pumping a barrel and a half out that hole I need a barrel and a half of fluid going back in it to fill the void where the oil once was.

      Why would you tell a channel how to make their own videos? You said there are hundreds of other channels... That gives you plenty of options. Please don't speak for everybody because that would include me.

    Genuine question...
    Why not use presurized water to cut things ? You have water there... You can cut diamonds with pressured water... so why not use it ??

    • @Vatsyayana87
      @Vatsyayana87 ปีที่แล้ว

      Good question, i havent watched it yet but i assume you are talking about a hand held cutter and so id think thats where the weakness lays, the human.
      Ive never seen a human use a proper water cutter and i wonder if the thrust from those things are simply too much for us to use safely.

      Generally, fluids such as water and even air can have such immense torque due to the compression factor that they could easily break humans wrists. To create a handheld water cutting machine that would be able to both cut high rated steel like that, as well as have it be braced as to not harm the user, would be e very substantial feat on its own. At the moment, diamond cutters do the trick for what they need them to do, so they don’t change it. Hope that answers the question, despite me being a bit late to the party!

    Remember this FACT: If it weren't for AMERICAN innovation, technology, construction, along with the drilling, extraction, and production processes involved in offshore oil and gas, Great Britain would still be burning peat and coal to keep warm, and to boil its tea.
    It was also American workers who made the whole operation work, providing both the grunt labor, AND the supervision ONSHORE, as well as OFFSHORE to keep things going.
    I know, I worked out of both Great Yarmouth and Aberdeen from mid 1988 through mid 1992.
    The British have a bad habit of taking credit for things that were either invented by Americans, OR, if invented by the British, vastly improved upon by Americans.
