CABLE: BETHSING for offshore-construction service in the Far East Bethlehem's Singapore yard is barely two years old, but already it has built and delivered several pieces of equipment—-including an offshore drilling rig. This huge mobile, independent-leg jack-up, a tender- assisted drill barge, is now working in waters up to 200-ft deep in the Gulf of Suez. A second rig of this type, but somewhat larger and self-contained, is now under construction here. Also being built here—and nearly completed—is a mat-supported mobile drilling platform of the familiar Bethlehem design, which was developed and engi- neered by our Beaumont Yard in Texas. This big plat- form—plus a sister rig, soon to be on the ways—are scheduled for- 1973 delivery. Both rigs will have a drilling capacity of 25,000 ft, and will operate in water depths to 250 ft. Our Singapore Yard specializes in equipment for offshore oil drilling, production, and storage operations. We have the facilities and the skills to produce mobile drilling rigs, offshore platforms, drilling tenders, drill-ship conversions, work and crew boats, barges, and miscellaneous fabrica- tions. The yard will continue to draw on the long-term experience of our Beaumont, Texas, yard, a pioneer in off- shore equipment. Beaumont also serves as our new yard's United States sales representative. Call or cable us in Singapore or Beaumont. We'll deliver. Design, Engineering, Construction BETHLEHEM STEEL Shipbuilding BETHLEHEM SINGAPORE PRIVATE LTD. P.O.
