Talk:Hibernia Gravity Base Structure

Scope

This article should be about the platform, as distinct from the oil field of the same name, which has its own article. The platform is sufficiently notable in its own right: it's the largest in the world, it's built to withstand icebergs, and it's the economic engine behind the recovery of Newfoundland and Labrador.LeadSongDog (talk) 20:52, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

Size?

The article says it's the largest, and then doesn't seem to present its measurements (except in weight?). Can we get its size added to the article, pronto? (I didn't find, looking some months ago.) Misty MH (talk) 11:18, 25 May 2019 (UTC) Misty MH (talk) 11:18, 25 May 2019 (UTC)

Dead already

This thing began leaking fluids in 2020 and was abandoned. Did it make a profit? Do engineers consider it a failed experiment? Did they so quickly bail because of pandemic-caused low oil prices in 2020?

I'm watching a documentary on this that must be 20-25 years old. Given the hype, I'm surprised this article is so short and hasn't been updated in two years.

Maybe it's an embarrassment to Canadians and the Canadian government, which had to contribute taxpayer money to the $4 billion project? So much investment for what was estimated to produce only $11 billion in oil. 2601:404:D480:98A0:9283:A658:E992:2538 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 02:46, 16 April 2022 (UTC)
