Draugen Platform: An Engineering Marvel
Draugen is an oil field associated with gas in the southern part of the Norwegian Sea with a depth of 250 meters. Rising 280 meters above the water level, the Draugen platform was named after ”Draugr”, a revenant from Scandinavian mythology, to protect the platform from the harsh weather conditions prevailing on the sea. The platform, which is an engineering marvel, consists of a singular concrete column with an integrated deck, and oil transport is accomplished through a tanker via a floating buoy. Stabilized oil is stored in the tanks at the base of the facility.
