Rig Work
Todd Myers, 40, of Raymond, Miss., works on parts of the elevating units for 'Hercules Rig 26', which sits behind him at R & R Fabricators in Sabine Pass on Friday morning. The 'jack-up' drilling rig is being refurbished to handle almost twice its original capacity in preparation for shipping overseas. The rig is part of a continuing migration of shallow water 'jack-up' drilling rigs out of the Gulf of Mexico and to international locations where they can demand a higher price for their services.
