Drill Production for Offshore Oil Rigs
When a new oil field is being examined before it is to go
on steam, engineers and geophysicists gather information
on the value and size of the oil field. If the oil field
is up to standards then drilling can begin. This starts
with drilling the production wells horizontally.

Traditionally wells were drilled vertically. However these days due to
greater efficiencies in extraction methods, wells are drilled horizontally
in order to access more of the hydrocarbons that are stored within the
well. If the well does not produce the required hydrocarbons a new well
is then drilled and the other is left deserted. If the well is proven
to be valuable then the extracting process can begin and new jobs are
created to begin work.
Obtaining oil from the sea is far more expensive than land due to the
cost and setup of oil rig platforms that are set on stands and stand on
the waterbed. For very deep oil fields a floating oil rig platform is
used. These are held in place with long chains and these fields are capable
of drilling 10,000 feet down using this method.
