SEA QUEST
Semi-Submersible Drilling Rig
The first British find (effectively) was made in late 1969, by Amoco, 120 miles East of Aberdeen. The crew of the rig Sea Quest was so unprepared for oil that samples had to be flown ashore in a pickle jar raided from the galley.
Unfortunately, the Arbroath find was too small to be commercial at that time, they made the grade in 1982.
