This is the news below.
Bored with palm-fringed beaches and turquoise seas? Then the gigantic oil platforms of the North Sea beckon. The first ever “rig-spotting” cruise just ended off the coast of Norway, and those onboard the four-day trip said it was jawdropping.
“I couldn’t believe that these big buildings could be made,” said passenger Kari Somme, 86, after seeing Statoil’s (STL.OL) Troll A platform – the heaviest structure ever moved by mankind – towering 200 meters (650 feet) above the surface of the sea.
