In this episode, we feature Bruce Collipp, a legendary naval architect with Shell who developed numerous pioneering technologies and techniques to conquer the offshore. He is given credit for the design of the first semisubmersible floating drilling rig, the Blue Water 1. His innovative ideas and designs made possible the creation of a new generation of mobile offshore drilling units—MODUs--that were capable of operating in deep water under harsh conditions.
He also contributed significantly to the designs of fixed and floating platform structures and how to make them more stable and safe in challenging marine environments offshore in California, Cook Inlet in Alaska, and in deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico beyond the 1,000 foot mark.
