The Trident 1 is a jack-up rig. The legs are raised high for towing by tug boats to location where the 3 anchors from each corner keep it on location until the steel legs are lowered to the sea bed. The vessel is raised slowly above the water to an air gap of 25 feet. Normal drilling position is as shown here.
