Derrick photographed at Galveston, TX Frank Corbett, Dallas, TX  
This derrick is a class of vessel called a semi submersible, meaning, when its out in the seas it floats on the pontoons to get to the location, but sinks down to a working depth to be more stable. about half of the length of the legs deep. This is a small one that hold its position by anchors, the bigger deep seas versions are 6 times larger and hold position by dynamic positioning using 6-8 propellers called thrusters. The location is controlled by satellites and land station signals. The derrick can stay over a well in the sea bed within 3 meters accuracy in 10,000 - 12000 ft of water and 30 ft seas.
