Oil Rigs

Jonny learns how oil from the sea bed is eventually turned into petrol. The process involves helicopters, gargantuan tankers, turbines, vertical descent lifeboats, flames, cranes and an oil rig. He goes inside a 285 metre high hollow concrete leg, which supports the entire rig, seeing how it pumps out up to 37 million litres of oil per day.
