Depuis la fin de la dernière guerre, c’est la plateforme de type treillis, en acier, qui est la plus classiquement employée. C’est un treillis tubulaire (le «jacket», de forme pyramidale à base rectangulaire) qui est fiché sur le fond marin par des piles en tube d’acier, foncées au travers des membrures d’angle de la structure. Ces piles supportent des ponts, également en acier, sur lesquels sont installés les équipements de production. Le jacket est l’élément raidisseur du système et les piles reprennent les charges imposées à la structure par l’action des éléments extérieurs ainsi que par le poids des équipements. 6, record 1, French, - treillis
