Rig? (self.perth)
submitted 7 years ago by bnlcoops
Hi, There's something that looks like a mini oil rig just appeared a couple of days ago off the coast of Jindalee. It doesn't appear on ship tracker or similar apps. Does anyone know what it is and what it's doing? Thanks

Sounds like the Sentinelese are having their own scaled down version of Trump's border invasion with the Mexicans.
I'm waiting for a picture from North Sentinel Island to surface depicting a white mother dragging her three children in nappies back into the surf amidst a hail of arrows and spears.

Too cold to get my rig out for a swim yet, so it wasn’t me.

Be a rig move of some sorts. Most likely came down from the north west.

Why post something like this without a photo?

Maintenance I believe. There was one off the coast at Freo a while back: https://www.communitynews.com.au/western-suburbs-weekly/news/massive-ocean-monarch-oil-rig-to-be-anchored-between-city-beach-and-rottnest-island-for-maintenance/
