that petrol emotion
TLP, Cromarty Firth
The Hutton (Conoco, North Sea oil and gas field) Tension Leg Platform hull, the first offshore structure of its kind in the world, wanly reflecting the setting winter sun, at its long term anchorage in the Cromarty Firth, as a wintry squall comes in from the North. The remains of the Hi-Fab fabrication yard at Nigg, where the hull was built, is in sight, and the McDermott yard where the (now removed) topsides structure came from, is a few miles hence at Ardersier. The topsides was recycled on another petrochemical development in Russia, after the original deployment in the North Sea, and the hull on transfer from Russia to Mexico for a redeployment modifications in 2009, was cold stacked in its present location after the contract fell through.
