Installing the Largest Oil Rigs in the World | FD Engineering

The Hebron project is a plan to exploit a 700 million barrel heavy oil field off the east coast of Canada with the world’s largest oil platform. Italian company Fagioli was employed to transport the crew quarters from Korea to Bull Arm, near St John’s in Canada, and install all the component parts onto the giant platform. It was a record breaking journey and epic effort to load the huge structure onto the massive Dockwise Vanguard and transport it all the way across the Pacific Ocean, through the Panama Canal and up the coast of North America.
