Whoever did the animations needs a raise , solid job.

Big bigger biggest is one of my favourite series of documentaries to watch

Amazing video. Key moments: 13:55 Radio sound 15:32 Suction sound 42:59 Hydrochloric Acid 43:50 Drawback 45:14 Explosion 46:26 Love this guy's energy 46:38 Fire

I have been with Oil Service Company for 17 years now. For some, this is perhaps one of a kind technology. For us it's a place to work. More than that, this technology represents the human effort to survive and thrive.

I work oilfield. The engineering that goes into it. Blows my mind on a daily basis.

Brilliantly presented. I spent almost my entire career in the oil industry, its is an amazing business, and it keeps life today as we know it possible.

this documentary is already 10 years old... but still love to watch ... esp the antonov 124 episode

Amazing animation ! Kudos

You're doing an outstanding job! 👍

Worked on the Brent bravo (looked like the Beryl Alpha) in the North Sea , worked in some really heavy seas where the accommodation living quarters would move when the huge waves hit .

Your work and research are dynamic

Stavros in Florida caught your video and enjoyed it, explained really well. A really neat video

Amazing tutorial ❤️

This is just amazing

Those deep sea divers/welders who built that rig deserve more recognition. Can’t imagine having to decompress for 9 days

We take this stuff for granted

We're so lucky to have hard working feminists building these oil rigs. 😂

Hermoso una plataforma petrolera en medio del oceano construida con mucha logistica

Do you want to be uploading the big bigger biggest icebreaker documentary too? It was ones on, but it seems to be gone now

Buenísimo !. increíble !. Impresionante !. Tio San... in dhis world You are the best . 💪 !.

Small misspelling in the thumbnail. Thanks for the documentary

I want to know which software you use to make such amazing animations.

Imagine being a compression diver in the early days where you actually stayed in a capsule under the sea, but I don't think that insane idea was around for too long until the way they do it now with the bells. Even being on the ship in a chamber wouldn't make me feel much better, tbf. Serious props to the men and women who do these jobs.

Barrel alpha rig, So top heavy. Just amazing

I love it

That's really so crazy how this oil rig stays upright in the ocean water It seems like it would Fall over but it doesn't look like it is going to fall over good engineering for real All those years ago of school paid off 😊 okay thanks Charles

As a Brit i really do admire American ingenuity

Wow amazing technology..

Very nice lob

How i can get a job in mechanical department in offshore oil rig as i don't have any kind of degree related to this field but i have enough knowledge about field

The offshore oil&gas come long way from start 1960 up now.here east coast canada newfoundland we have bad,ugly and good too.the public don't how cost today offshore is just insane plus all planning on this.here calgary lots company are involve offshore and tough go yup.thanks video😊

7 min in and two sets of ads, come on, hope the rest is not like this, ads OK greed not so much.

Did they do 12 hour shift?

Also, these are core samples that can be given to archeologist and mineralogist. The study the history of the water bed of this part of the world.

Dude thanks bad ass americans engineering the world 🌎 awesome video

Why would you name an oil rig "Perdido" = "Lost" :/.

Element 18 animation is simple -poly 3D models that makes a lot of sense

At the end of the movie we can see rescue boats which can drop from the platform into the sea by a special designed rail guideline

I love it, all these amazing machines but we get push back on renewables like it's too much hassle. Were better than that, this is proof

wow

I'm these offshore platforms. You can work directly with NOAA Is the national ocean and atmospheric association.

Deep sea archaeologists can analyze core samples from artifacts using techniques like spectroscopy and radiocarbon dating. This analysis can provide insights into the artifact's composition, age, and preservation needs. Core samples are long, narrow pieces of rock that are obtained by drilling into a rock with a special tool. Full diameter core samples can range from 1.50 to 6 inches in diameter and anywhere between 15 to 400 feet in length. Geochemists can also extract fluid from the core and conduct chemical analyses. They look for elements and trace minerals in the samples that tell us where the fluid came from and what conditions are like under the seafloor.

Though these offshore platforms can have all kinds of atmospheric institutions, modern ring offshore above sea environmental conditions and also wave tight speed and density of the ocean's currents at the surface and then at the different levels. Below the surface as well. So lots of oceanic research can be done and all these offshore platforms. Marine geology, or geological oceanography, is the study of the ocean floor's structure and history. It involves geophysical, geochemical, sedimentological, and paleontological investigations of the ocean floor and coastal zone

Money only innovates when it benefits.

These guys are always traveling back in time to be able to understand something😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Lithium, let's rip a giant hole in the earth, and use a billion gallons of fresh water to process it.🤣

It supplies oil for 150.000 cars in summary or per day?

Go big, and drill baby DRILL! T-24

Planet Earth Restauration, Leav3 no Trace Lif3forms on Earth ❤

This rig weights 45,000 tons, more than many WW2 battleships.!

Out of here, ads every 7 min is unreasonable.

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG?!

Keep a rescue ship near the drilling rig. For workers to escape

Perdido is a relatively small platform. When compared to Thunderhorse or Atlantis or Olympus, Perdido is tiny, maybe 1/5 the size. Although, Perdido is deep, 8k ft. But not much deeper than Atlantis, 7,000 ft. The large rigs are much more interesting because there's so much more going on and involved with the topsides and hulls. I was the construction proj engineer for Atlantis (i was friends with the construction PM for Perdido) and it's so strange how you just get used to working on jobs like these. Visitors to the fab yard show up and jaws on floor. I miss it, but the work is a nightmare because Shell, BP, Chevron, etc don't care about construction cost compared to the level of production you'll get. Atlantis was producing 300,000 barrels/day and paid for itself so quickly. So BP accelerated our schedule to inhuman levels but didn't care what our mgmt proposed cost-wise to do it. We just got stuck working 7 days/week.... all of these jobs eventually do this. The production is just so insane compared to what it costs to build them.

👍🙂

concrete doesn't dry it chemically sets....

Bigger deeper harder and there bobbing up and down on the energy of life???🤔

It amazing what man can engineer with oil recovery thech now if man can find a way to replace the unreplaceable which is oil we would have it made lite your cigar with 1000 dollar bills

Peon Deepwater into keybridge is smalltime.

2.18.24 😮

There wrong I worked in the gulf on an anchor vessel and we were putting anchors out to support flotation rigs in deep water in the early 80s

Is that blood on his chin and neck and collar of his shirt at 41:02 WTf. Can't believe nobody noticed that!

It’s getting harder and harder to produce petroleum. The reserves are in more difficult places.

This Channel has way to few subs

THIS IS A GIANT CPU THEY ARE EXTRACTING LIFE FORCES TO KEEP LIFE GOING....

Roger Roger Roger More More More

It's not reassuring to know that we need to search for oil deeper and deeper

The funniest thing in this video was this quote near the end “The Oil Industry has learned its lesson” 😂

(((!!!^*(:สายดี่ง:)*^!!!)))

Reminds me of Pernida from Warframe 😂

Good stuff! Just want to point out a facts error. Troll Alpha platform is the biggest ever moved construction in history, 1,2 mill tons 472 meters high built in Norway, not Beryl Alpha as stated in this episode.

Talk about deepwater horizon I thought it was the deepest??

ahh Shell oil

Quintillion and quintillion dollars business in the universe years2024

They do they avoid damaging the sea floor?😢

Great animation. Meh sound effects. In fact, they are annoying. Without sound effects it is completely fine.

Marine geology, or geological oceanography, is the study of the ocean floor's structure and history. It involves geophysical, geochemical, sedimentological, and paleontological investigations of the ocean floor and coastal zone. Marine biologists study marine organisms, their behaviors, and interactions with the environment. They study biological oceanography and the associated fields of chemical, physical, and geological oceanography to understand marine organisms. Deep-sea biologists may have a variety of responsibilities, including: Examining and exploring deep-ocean habitats, animals, and microorganisms Studying the physiological adaptations of organisms in the deep-sea environment Examining the diversity and activity of microbial life in the deep sea Providing specimens for study on the taxonomy, evolution, and ecology of benthic invertebrates Most positions require at least a Master's degree to become a deep-sea researcher. If you are interested in becoming a Professor of Marine Biology or writing grants to take the lead in research, you will need a PhD.

Horrific....so many places to drill on land...why must they drill in the water?

Deepwater Horizon 3.0.⚠

Not how directional drilling works

Damn, 9 days decompressing 😂

it's the gas that's destructive not the oil resource (and poor safety)

- Will this concept succeed? Nope. No chance. - Why? Because it’s just a flawed idea. The principle is wrong. - Normal turbines are extremely simple items. This concept isn’t. The video mentioned some issues, like the vulnerability and friction in the long track, inherent low height meaning lower wind speed and more turbulence. Just one of those alone would be enough to say nope. Then there are even more serious not mentioned issues. The wing on this concept, as well as those on a normal rotating turbine, is an asymmetrical wing shape, like an aeroplane wing. It only works well in one direction. Most planes can’t fly upside down and certainly not in reverse. This concept, if the models are precise, runs the wings in reverse in one of the directions. This could be remedied by rotating the blade upside down every time it passes the sharper turns. I assume that’s actually part of the concept. Otherwise it would be too bad for anyone to try. Another big issue is foil speed. Most of the power from a rotating turbine is generated quite far out from the rotating centre. The reason is that when the wing speed through the air gets much higher, the ability to harvest the power multiplies. The wings in this concept will never move fast through the wind. Conclusion, as mentioned in the first few words: This concept has a very low output potential, compared to its size, and it has far to high friction and complexity. It has zero future, other than as a means to suck money out of some rich guy with no mechanical and aerodynamics knowledge.

Houston Houston Houston

With all this drilling it's evidents God doesn't exit humans will end earth

I wish some oil prospectors already tried the inorganic oil theory. Maybe there's a lot more oil than we think.

Oil value inflated in 1919 discovery. betz limits eliminating most of the winds value threw gaps between blades . Einestine1919 relativity of winds equal and opposite reactions produce 4 higgins rpm blossoming .with sound zipping can and will produce speeds of light.then infinite.values he offset his hells ways to boil water massively naturaly and no tripple meltdowns needed ever

Built in air is next pass 5Dq lol 👿

Interesting that we are still open to drilling and Joe is selling EVs 🤔

Contamination is unavoidable in sea or on earth. Monopolized oil companies with huge profits, but poor people are starving and dieing all over the world.

Sad. Capitalusm vs. Nature.

Hang on...so divers are under pressure for a month and sit in a chamber for nine days? How the hell does that work 😮😮 how can you live in a chamber for nine days 😂

What's out chinese is watching..for sure they copy it..and Claim they are the one who design.😂😅😂

Why would the Conservatives vote a person into the Chair role that is so unlikely to be impartial? And I am voting conservative for sure.

(((!!!^*(:เชว:)*^!!!)))

Not impressed.He compares apples and pears.Totally unrelated metrics against each other.How deep the water is doesn't say anything about the platform size.And the pouring of concrete of Beryl Alpha is just stupid showing compact legs!The legs are of course hollow with about 1 meter thick walls. packed full of reinforcement steel.And why don't you show some of the big platforms of the North Sea not just the small Beryl Alpha.Gullfaks C or gass platform Troll A?I lived one kilometer from the site where the CONDEEP platforms were made in the 70' and 80'.

this is almost propaganda for oil companie.

It’s unfortunate the divers made very little money for the amount of risk the job carried.

Oil is finished.

We do not need to keep depending on oil if we need to stop global warming we must stop and look into green energy now.
