  • Alexander L. Kielland was a Norwegian semi-submersible drilling rig that, on 27 March 1980, capsized in the Ekofisk oil field in the North Sea, killing 123 people. The capsize was the worst disaster in Norwegian waters since the Second World War. The rig, located approximately 320 km east of Dundee, Scotland, was owned by the Stavanger Drilling Company of Norway and was on hire to the U.S. company Phillips Petroleum at the time of the disaster. The rig was named after the Norwegian writer Alexander Lange Kielland. The rig was built as a mobile drilling unit at a French shipyard, and delivered to Stavanger Drilling in July 1976. The floating drill rig was not used for drilling purposes but served as a semi-submersible 'flotel' providing living quarters for offshore workers. By 1978 additional accommodation blocks had been added to the platform, so that up to 386 persons could be accommodated. In 1980, the platform was providing offshore accommodation for the production platform Edda 2/7C. Within a few days it was scheduled to start a new contract with Shell UK as a drilling rig. (en)

  • De Alexander L. Kielland was een halfafzinkbaar boorplatform gebouwd door in 1976 voor . Dit platform uit de Pentagone-serie met vijf kolommen werd genoemd naar de gelijknamige Noorse schrijver Alexander Lange Kielland. Na 40 maanden dienst werd vanaf het platform niet meer geboord, en deed het nog dienst als voor personeel van de naburige productieplatformen, waaronder Edda. Op 27 maart 1980 was er mist, regen en ruwe zee met golven tot 12 m hoog. Een kolom van het platform begaf het, waarna het platform kapseisde en 123 van de 212 mensen lieten daarbij het leven. De meesten waren afkomstig uit het Noorse Rogaland. Aan de reddingsoperatie namen 71 schepen deel, negen marineschepen waaronder de Hr.Ms. Overijssel, 19 reddingshelikopters en zeven vliegtuigen.

  • La Alexander L. Kielland era una piattaforma petrolifera semisommergibile denominata in onore dello scrittore Alexander Lange Kielland e utilizzata come alloggio residenziale. Di proprietà norvegese, era ancorata sul campo petrolifero di Ekofisk. Il 27 marzo 1980 la piattaforma si capovolse, uccidendo 123 dei 212 membri dell'equipaggio: il peggior disastro nei mari della Norvegia dai tempi della seconda guerra mondiale. La causa dell'incidente fu il degrado della struttura portante della piattaforma. La perdita dell’Alexander L. Kielland ha portato a una serie di drastici cambiamenti nella progettazione, nel collaudo e nelle attrezzature di sicurezza delle piattaforme di estrazione. (it)
