One question. What can you do or what do you do with an old oil rig? Well, a team in Weston-super-mare figured just the thing. What have they planned on? They are planning to turn the old platform into a piece of art in the North Sea.
“The See Monster,” it was called that, was transported to the seaside of the town on a big boat as big as a football field. The full construction was estimated to be 35m tall! Even bigger than the Angel of the North! Well, 15m taller.
Organizers claimed that it would feature four colorful layers and a nice waterfall. They also said that when it’s finished, it will also have a green oasis and a seated Amphitheatre and broadcast studio!
Mark Canniford said, “The idea of bringing this back and showing people how this can be of benefit and the lessons that could be learned is fantastic.”
The 460-ton rig was brought over in the morning from the Netherlands. Patrick O’Mahony, a new substance founder said, “These giants are all over the world and no one has ever tried to do this before…. It’s like a rehabilitation. It has spent its life taking from the earth and now it’s time for it to give back.”
