Iranian Oil Platform Sinks to Bottom of Persian Gulf
Despite controversy surrounding international sanctions, Iran has called on foreign aid to recover a $40 million natural gas platform after it sunk to the seabed in the Persian Gulf. Divers have been deployed to see how the 1,300-metric-ton platform can be pulled up, in the giant South Pars field, according to the state-owned Pars Oil and Gas Co. (POGC) Ltd. However, due to extreme weather conditions in the area, a recovery operation has not yet began. The platform sunk to the bottom of the Gulf on Monday night as it was being installed by POGC and its builder, Iranian Marine Industrial Co. (Sadra), which is controlled by Iran’s Revolutionary Guards. It took 2.5 years to build. An investigation into the cause of the sinking has been launched. No casualties have been reported in this incident. |

Re: Iranian Oil Platform Sinks to Bottom of Persian Gulf
I would take a run and jump as far as I can. I wouldn't like to be close to that when it's sinking. When big things sink, the bubbles are dangerous! They take people down!
