No, it's not a baby or a puppy!! Geez, it's the rig!! Today Larry arranged for Jordan and a few of his friends to take a tour on the Trident 15. They had a short safety briefing then put on safety gear and headed out to the rig. (the boys liked using the hard hats to ram each other) It was fun for everyone to see the machinery that brings oil and gas from the depths of the earth. One father commented on how "big" the rig was...I had to tell him that this is a really small one! They were all shocked that this is considered small!! I do have to say that it looks 1000 times better than the last time I was out to the yard. Hopefully, it will be on its way to Thailand soon!!!
Here are some pics:
The safety briefing.
waiting for the fire drill to end so they could go out on the rig.
Getting an explanation of the drill floor.
Brake cooling skid.
The safety officer came and gave them all lessons on how to go up and down the stairways, here they are using proper technique.
Larry explaining something...
Here they are after the tour, the boys were very hungry!!!
