Chinese-produced offshore drilling platform
"Blue Whale II", the world's largest, is set to ship out from Yantai,
Shandong Province.
Designed to operate in waters close to
3,700 meters deep, the 37-story high platform can drill down over
15-kilometers. This will allow the "Blue Whale II" to access around
95% of underwater areas on earth.
Equipped with eight thrusters, the 44,000
ton "Blue Whale II" can withstand hurricane force winds of up to
200km/h.
