Drive past it everyday! It was massive, one of the bigger ones that have been in for a while. I went up to ask about it and the security told me a Drill Ship was due in next, although...havent seen it yet!
You work/live nearby then? We have an office on Airport Road West so I'm down at least once a week. Seriously big ship, largest I've ever seen in person anyway.My brother in law is the driller on the Chikyu, so I have an interest in O and G, drilling stuff...
And yes, he has promised to get me on board at some stage!

CVN 65 Enterprise there has been stricken from the active list and is due to decommissioned in March. It will then await the scrappers torch as it can't be saved as a museum ship due to the size of the early reactors it has, removing them would mean huge section of the ship cut away to get them out leaving not much left to save. This process will take 2 years. The island bridge structure may be saved.FourWheelDrift said:
