What is Offshore Drilling Rig Types and Systems about?

Offshore drilling rigs are complex and costly due to their self-contained infrastructure and remote location. They are classified as either mobile bottom-supported rigs like jack-up and submersible rigs used in shallow water, or floating rigs like drillships and semisubmersible rigs used in deep water. Floating rigs require additional technologies like dynamic positioning systems and marine risers to maintain position over the well and transport drilling equipment between the floating platform and seafloor.
