When a gale blew through the North Sea recently kicking up a huge sea state, the Aker H3-design accommodation platform Borgholm Dolphin was caught right in the middle of it. The rig is located adjacent to BG Group’s Lomond platform in the central North Sea.

The Borgholm Dolphin is currently on contract to BG Group according to Dolphin Drilling’s most recent fleet contract status.
