Here are a few more boats that work the Gulf of Mexico oil fields.<\/p>\n

The ubiquitous tug boat. These aren\u2019t the largest, sexiest, awe inspiring or most anything when it comes to work boats. But they have one thing going for them, it doesn\u2019t work without them. They\u2019re everywhere because they are needed everywhere.<\/p>\n

This one wasn\u2019t a work boat. It\u2019s an ex-roro (roll on- roll off) ship that carried cars for delivery all over the world until bought by Jeff Bezos and brought to Pensacola to have all of its superstructure cut off except the forecastle. This in preparation to operate as a landing ship for space launch vehicles. It would have operated similarly to the Space X barges. Bezos\u2019 Blue Origin wheels ran off or something happened and his plans crashed. At the moment of this phots, the ships name was Jacklyn, for his mother.<\/p>\n

Global 2000, another heavy lift work vessel used for building and dismantling drill platforms.<\/p>\n

Deep Blue, makes pipelines for carrying crude from where it is drilled many miles out in the Gulf to onshore refineries. I\u2019ve never thought it through but I wonder if the pipelines need intermediate platforms with booster pumps? I can\u2019t imagine the needed initial pressure to push a viscous oil through 50-100 miles of pipe.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know how I missed getting photos of it but the USS Oriskiny was brought into port here to be prepared to be the largest man-made fishing reef about 200\u2019 deep in the Gulf. It sits about 22 nautical miles (25 regular) on roughly a 150 degree heading from the mouth of Pensacola Bay. I\u2019ve fished it a number of times but you have to be there when it isn\u2019t covered up with dive boats. I\u2019ve never caught anything anywhere there were a bunch of divers in the area. Can\u2019t get too upset, I used to be a fanatic diver.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
