Auger: Deep-water Pioneer

Back in 1994, Auger was the world’s first tension-leg platform, operating in the US Gulf of Mexico. A true deep-water pioneer, it was the first to float in water, moored to the sea floor thousands of feet below.
When production from its fields started to slow, Auger looked destined for decommissioning. But in 2010 its fate took a dramatic turn.
Using a new breed of seismic technology, Shell’s engineers discovered a whole untapped field - called Cardamom - hidden behind a vast salt deposit, 4 miles (6.4 km) below the sea floor. To reach its oil, they drilled one of the world’s longest wells.
In September 2014, Auger began producing new energy from Cardamom. This is the story of a legendary platform and the oil field that’s reinventing it - a success story unlike any other in deep water.

I worked on this rig, when it first started drilling and it was amazing. I was able to pay cash for college that year. :)
You are shell
The engineering and technical advances that have came out of the oil industry is wild. Just shows what a lot of money and private enterprise focused on profits can achieve.
I’ve been on Auger a couple times and still get lost on it. It’s still in good shape for it’s age.
It's been damaged by hurricane Laura
Optimus Crime Oh wow!!! What kind of damage? Hopefully not structurally or anything big. I’ve been trying to get back out to Mars to finish some work.
Shell. Much love. 🇺🇸👍
Proud to have worked on Auger during my career offshire.
Good.how mutch they pay?...sorry the personal question...im a father.
What's being a father have to do with it? Lol

This was one of my favorite oil platforms to ever work on most definitely 💰
Does the mars oilrig look simular to this one , and how close to each other are they
Very smart and a good use of resource.

Great video's shell, very interesting so i thought i would have a look at bp's video's and they have got nothing on you.
As an offshore worker i can say shell is one of the best out there.
lee MacDonald.
Absolutely incredible. The Oil industry rocks 💪💪
Shell is the best company and safe company i work for and the oilfield.
I am so proud to be part of this project for the last two and a half years.

How much were you paid?
I worked on the Auger in 2007
She’ll shoring on BP, man I love America
I worked on their a few hitches in the early 90's
Technology used there was brilliant innovation achieved by the petroleum industry.
what gets into the ground when oil and gas are taken up? what material has the ability to stabilize the subsoil as good as oil and compressed gas. Nothing can replace Oil and Gas so subsoil worldwide is and will be unstable.
vary cool shell BP got nothing on u woo all I can say grate work geys
Yes interesting to see this nice structure idea

Seems like James May should be narrating this
At 5:15 , It is said "two miles might as well be the other side of the solar system". Can someone please explain that ?
I think he meant to say it was jokingly possible they were gonna drill out of the earth crust
Drilling a 8” hole for 2 miles, it’s hard… other side of solar system hard lol

says everyone who uses transportation that requires fossil fuels.... environmental hypocrites
Well, it’s kinda impossible to not use fossil fuels, of course you can reduce your use
Insha Allah
I love engineering victories like this. Plus, a win for America... It's awesome living in an energy independent and economically superior nation.
+Ken Johnson Modern civilization will destroy earth planet. It is the right time to stop these giant companies. We can't release that stored energy into our atmosphere. This is Christmas time and where is the snow? Modern civilization needs to stop and time to preserve the natural beauty of our planet earth!!!
Go green!!
+Ken Johnson superior for the 1% not for you.
Tell that to the homeless.
Scott, Shell doesn't make food... It's not their job to help the homeless...

Nice job

If this is not god-like ability, I don’t know what is!!!
I fish for marlin off this rig
Very, Amazing Agree with comment down below
I like this very much very interesting

Shell your drill my oil at 60 miles out as shell oil said to be at 60 miles out and i want my profits as oil

Please conisder moving away from oil. Especially deep water drilling! Renewables are the future @
Renewables are only a bit less damaging to the enviroment. Batteries for solar are very hard to recycle and often are not and they spill, releasing the extremely polluting acids inside them. Wind farms devastate bird populations and allow for insects to grow in number, which is devastating to farming.
You want clean and safe for nature? Go nuclear.

Hey shell instead of selling fuel build wind farms and turn gas stations into charging stations

What do you do when the wind doesn’t blow? Try again. Oil is the best we’ve got at this point. If you feel so strong against oil, go buy an electric car. Just know that most electricity comes from power plants powered by natural gas, another product of offshore production platforms.
So you're saying that you are drilling oil with a platform that should have been retired, but hasn't been because it can drill even more poluting oil to make a bigger profit for Shell and keep its investors happy?
