High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Petronius is a deepwater compliant tower oil platform operated by Chevron Corporation and Marathon Oil in the Gulf of Mexico, 210 km southeast of New Orleans. A compliant piled tower design, it is 609.9 meters (2,001 ft) high, and was arguably the tallest free-standing structure in the world, until surpassed by the Burj Dubai in 2008, although this claim is disputed since only 75 meters of the platform are above water. The multi-deck topsides are 64 meters by 43 meters by 18.3 meters high and hold 21 well slots, and the entire structure weighs around 43,000 tons. Around 8,000 m (50,000 barrels) of oil and 2,000,000 m (70 million cubic feet) of natural gas are extracted daily by the rig.
