Unlike traditional vessels, [drill vessels] are modified by a center opening through the vessel for conducting drilling operations. This center opening is commonly called a "moonpool." 3, record 13, English, - moonpool

Most of the development of equipment and technology for rotary drilling from floating vessels started with an extensive shallow-hole coring operation off the coast of California in the Santa Barbara Channel. The very first operations were conducted "over the side" of the drill vessel, but these were quickly supplanted by vessels designed with a center drill well or "moonpool." 3, record 13, English, - moonpool

The center drill well is located with the center of gravity of the vessel to minimize the effect of rotational motion. The derrick or mast is located over the drill well with the pipe racks adjacent either fore or aft. 3, record 13, English, - moonpool

Moonpool est réservé à une ouverture centrale. Slot s'emploie quand cet espace est aménagé dans l'un des côtés de la plate-forme (notamment sur les plates-formes triangulaires).

En 1753 la ville de Lunenburg, Nouvelle-Écosse, était fondée par 2000 Allemands, Français, et Suisses recrutés pour leur talents par le gouvernement anglais. [...] Son plan quadrillé suit celui d'autres villes coloniales comme Halifax et Savannah. Construite sur un terrain petit, une maison caractéristique porte son «Lunenburg Bump» typique, un dessin assez unique.
