Jackup rig

I had to make a phone call to find out what this is 
(Thanks J & B) 

Thanks too, to Wikipedia for this...
A jackup rig or a self-elevating unit is a type of mobile platform that consists of a buoyant  hull fitted with a number of movable legs, capable of raising its hull over the surface of the sea. The buoyant hull enables transportation of the unit and all attached machinery to a desired location. Once on location the hull is raised to the required elevation above the sea surface supported by the sea bed. The legs of such units may be designed to penetrate the sea bed, may be fitted with enlarged sections or footings, or may be attached to a bottom mat.
