About MeClose up view in a calm sea of the Sea Conquest semi submersible drilling rig operated by BP. It was built only a few months before this image was taken as the shiny paintwork shows. It worked in a variety of North Sea fields including Magnus. Although this appears to be a very tranquil image there would have been considerable noise and activity on the drill floor of the rig when this was taken.
