Something New at the Ship Yards

Galveston Bay TX

I'm pretty sure this is the Transocean Marianas.
The Marianas is a deepwater rig, capable of drilling for oil in 7,000 ft. of water.
She was damaged in Hurricane Ike last year. Found adrift after the storm.

Thats a very familiar sight over here ... nicely framed and the clouds line up just perfectly to add a bit of drama!
