WHat drillship you on? Im on the West Neptune
You only know one? I will PM my little black book.
Frank ain’t ever going to smell the same again!
So you would be with Seadrill right? That was the Discoverer Clear Leader with MAN/STX. The one I mentioned with 6 18 cyl wartsilas was the Deepwater Horizon semi submersible. I retired from the oilfield in 2017. Don't miss it a bit.
I’d be ok with that
Small world for sure. I was on the Clearleader from the shipyard through the first year of operation. At that time I worked for NOV. But yes Im with Seadrill
No Other Vendor lol
I went to the DCL during the moratorium after the DWH met its demise. I had been home from the DWH about 4 days when I heard about their "undesirable event."
We better STFU in this thread though or somebody will be taking corrective action against us.

Perhaps I can appease the thread monitors with some pics.
The first pic was taken of the DWH from the deck of a workboat. This will give an idea of how high off the water the lifeboats were. I want to say about 50 feet high but don't remember for sure
2nd pic shows how high the waves were during hurricane Ike 9-10-08. Lifeboats are to the right side of the pic. The highest handrails in the background are on the main/top deck level. As with all Dynamically Positioned (unmoored) rigs we did not evacuate for storms.
Another view for perspective.

I do not, not yet.
In 25 years, I have only ever owned trucks. Ford should have never stopped making the 302. But it came back in 2012, if memory serves. I had one in a 1971 F-100.
They still make a 302, but now it's called the 5.0 - the Coyote engine (yes, 2012 to present). They put it in the Mustang and with a different tune in the F-150.
It's an absolute party (regardless of what the LS guys tell you) and it has a soundtrack to match.
The flat-plane crank is in the 5.2, which is the engine that got all the attention in the GT-350 (now discontinued).
Took one I found here and adapted it for the holiday.
I'm not sure the junkyards have room because of them filling up with Chevy and Mopar junk.
That position is called child support.
