Ocean Star Offshore Drilling Rig & Museum

TIME : 2016/2/18 12:41:23

From 1969 to 1984, this offshore rig drilled for oil in up to 173ft of water out in the gulf. Now moored off the end of 19th St, it has been converted into a three-level museum that explains offshore oil exploration for people who want to know more about both benefits and dangers.
