    I would have thought the Pacific Plate was 'slightly' larger :)

        Glad to oblige. Of course I fully understood what you meant, but my natural pedantry and smart-arseiness wouldn't let me to allow it to pass without comment. That said, it is very impressive.

          Dave, If you had failed to make a comment, I would have thought you were ill or something similar. :rolleyes:

            Following on from the post I made a couple down, here is a link to some of the related videos and some of our others. The videos include time lapse construction of the jacket, the topside and lifting of the jacket onto the seabed. There is also a video which shows the tow out of a subsea bundle and tow head (the smaller cleaner one). At the time this was moving, this was the largest single moving 'man-made'* object on the planet. Which is quite an achievement in my eyes! The "Riding out" video shows 2 first timers visiting one of our platforms and going for a tour round some of the platforms facilities. http://www.gradcracker.com/hub/226/apache-north-sea-production-limited/videos/[^] Enjoy! *added for the sake of clarity, some people clearly need the help

              They're not man-made. They're "Beer and fast food" made! ;)

                  Sure, the initial product release is man made. But the bloated size that comes quite quickly is beer and fast food made. :-D

                        If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams
                        You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun
                        Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein
