Oil Rig Research.

As part of my DLC will contain a map  I need to look into oil rigs and their components and how they actually look so I can create a realistic approach. I feel that this will heavily aid my project as for the most part Siege is a fairly realistic game so I want to ensure the map is as detailed and as possible. To do this I found a legitimate website, the United States Department Of Labour website which contains detailed images and a key of an oil rig and it’s components.

This image below is a great example of the components on a oil rig and what it has to offer overall. I feel that this is a great image to summarise all the parts of a rig and it is very clear to follow.

As mentioned previously in my map blog each map has it’s own rooms and components which defenders have to defend from the attackers. I think that the 4 rooms I will choose for the map are the living quarters, Doghouse, Engine Generator Sets and the Bulk Mud Components Storage. These would be interesting to design and consider and I feel that they would be fun to defend and look after.
