Offshore Fixed Drilling Platform

When oil reservoirs lie beneath the seabed, offshore drilling platforms come into play. Offshore exploration is essential for accessing deep-sea hydrocarbon reserves that supply a large share of the world’s energy. Fixed-bottom platforms are anchored directly to the seabed and are commonly used in shallow to medium-depth waters.

Fixed offshore platforms are built on steel or concrete jackets anchored to the seabed. They are designed for long-term drilling and production operations, supporting large crews, heavy equipment, and continuous production over many years. These platforms are a reliable choice for established offshore fields in the Gulf of Mexico, the North Sea, and the South China Sea.

• Fixed steel jacket structure anchored to the seabed for long-term stability
• Suitable for water depths up to 1,700 ft (approximately 520 m)
• Supports both drilling and production operations on a single platform
• Helipad, crew quarters, and utility modules integrated on deck
• Designed to withstand harsh ocean environments, storms, and wave loads
• Permanent installation with high equipment availability and low relocation cost

• Offshore oil and gas exploration in shallow to medium-depth waters
• Long-term production drilling in established offshore fields
• Well intervention and workover operations from a fixed platform
• Production support for subsea well clusters
