After a successful exploration, next comes the offshore platforms installation. These platforms extract oil and gas, and are used as a home for the workers and communication towers. Depending the circumstances, the platform can be fixed at the seafloor, float, or be an artificial island. There different kinds of platforms ([[:File:Different kinds of platforms.png|Figure 4]]), each one with different especial characteristic according to the deposit and ocean bed kind.
