message: From Troll A platform:
:The overall height of the platform is 472 meters and it weighs 656,000 tons.
From Troll oil field:
:Total weight is 1.2 million tons, the total height is 472 meters
So is it 650,000 or 1.2 million tons?

message: The picture of the construction of the gravity base:
It this really the construction of Troll A?
Some wikipedia article about Statfjord A claims that it is the construction of that plattform.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.157.38.33 (talk) 07:45, 19 August 2011 (UTC)

message: Gas rises from 40 wells, and is exported through a number of pipes at better than 2,000 miles per hour (890 m/s).
(emphasis added)
Since that must involve some novel physics, technology, or interpretation of the referenced source, I suggest more detail from a less transient reference is appropriate if this claim is to be supported.  I remember viewing a NGC documentary about Troll A; I don't recall it making any such statement, but I think I'd have found it noteworthy if it did. --129.230.244.1 (talk) 23:38, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

message: Royal Dutch Shell is currently developing the first floating liquefied natural gas facility, which will be situated  off the coast of Western Australia and is due for completion in around 2017.http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/9ccaed4a-82ba-11e0-b97c-00144feabdc0.html#axzz1NADgzzOH  When it is finished, this will be the largest floating offshore facility. It will measure around  long and  wide, and when ballasted will weigh 600,000 tonnes.http://gastoday.com.au/news/flng_gets_serious/042981/

message: Has anyone found a reference to how many workers the platform can accommodate?  --Dandv(talk|contribs) 00:19, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Worker capacity 

message: "Built from reinforced concrete, as of 2014, it was the tallest structure that has ever been moved to another position, relative to the surface of the Earth"
"It is often incorrectly referenced as the heaviest object ever moved as well, but it is actually the second heaviest after another Condeep Oil platform the Gullfaks C"
"has the distinction of being the heaviest and second tallest (after the Petronius platform) structure ever moved by humankind"
I'm so confused. It's the tallest, but actually the second tallest, and it's incorrectly referred to as the heaviest but it's also the heaviest? Am I wordblind or is this all very contradictory? Mqrius (talk) 12:02, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
