stavanger

biggest cranes i've ever seen. Norweigan ship builders have now mostly switched to supporting the oil industry. Stavanger has a good museum devoted to the history of oil exploration in Norway. One gets an insight into the tough life lived on board the rigs in the north sea. Having sailed past the rigs and their associated support ships it was interesting to find out more about them.
