From Prospect to First Oil: Drillships, Swivels, Hammers and Turrets
Follow fictional engineer Farah from a prospect on a map to an operating offshore field.

Pile hammers, anchors, FPSO turret moorings and swivel stacks bring the story through integration, hook-up and first oil. Story characters, facilities and story figures are fictional and illustrative.
