The Polar Pioneer Oil Rig and The MV Blue Marlin Submersible Transport Ship

In the early morning hours of Friday, April 17th, a gigantic structure drifted into the harbor at Port Angeles, Washington.   Outrageous ocean behemoths, the  Polar Pioneer  oil rig, nested securely atop the submersible transport ship, MV Blue Marlin , were a sight to behold.

The oil rig towers 355 feet high, is an unbelievable 400 feet long and owned by Transocean Ltd.  The transport ship is a staggering 712 ft long and 138 ft wide and is owned by Dockwise of the Netherlands. (2)
