[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
View to the bottem of the platform which is now on top of the 3 shafts and raised up for 80 meters of the water level in the Stavanger fjord.
I'm staying on top of the surrounded cells of 20 mtr diam and 50 meters high. When later on at locaton those cells are always full of water or when the production was started, oil / water to ensure it stays at the seabed.
The North and South shaft are for the drilling ( each good for 20 Well pipes)
Shaft 3 is the Utillity shaft which is full with machines, pumps, and pipesystems.
The Platform itself is separated into 15 different Areas with their specific abillities.
On top the Helideck, where I came and went off from a few hundred times. (I was in total 3.5 years on this project)

Hi Jan,
Goede diagonale compo
Er valt nog wat te winne in deze foto door na te scherpen

Jan, You stayed on these platforms, I have read a lot about these type of things, I even wanted to work on some but could get in nowere, always seemed to have to know someone to get in. But now my question, how high does the water at times rise against these platforms? in storms or high tide?

Cheers
Clint
