Up on the top of the barge trying to repair a finicky satellite uplink. Congo nights.
Here's another taken a couple of months ago off the shetlands (not my photo)

Ah a Heerema rig, I had a visit to their base in Hartlepool. Very impressive seeing a rig being assembled indoors and how they float the rigs out into the water. I remember them saying they have a barge that pumps so much water it essentially holds the tide level for 5 hours.

It's hard to grasp how big those cranes are. The yellow stripes on the booms are waist-high handrails.

That's why it was cool seeing some of the assembly indoors with people on the rig, gives you a sense of how huge it is. This is the build shed I visited.
