Atlantis PQ, Semi-submersible production platform in Gulf of Mexico, US

Atlantis PQ is a semi-submersible production platform with crew quarters, moored over the Atlantis Oil Field 190 miles south of New Orleans. Its pale yellow steel hull, built by Daewoo in Okpo, supports densely packed topsides modules assembled in Morgan City and integrated at Ingleside. At night the lattice structure is lit by numerous small white lights, and a crane pedestal marked "SEATRAX" rises on the right.

The platform was constructed in the early 2000s and began oil production shortly after its deployment. It represents an evolution in technology for extracting resources from deeper ocean fields.

The "PQ" in the platform's name marks it as a production facility with crew quarters, distinguishing it from purely drilling units. Its hull was designed by GVA and built by Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering in Okpo, South Korea, while the topsides modules were built in Morgan City, Louisiana and integrated with the hull in Ingleside, Texas.

As an offshore facility, it is not open to public visits and exists solely for operational purposes. Information about its functions can be found through industry sources and technical documentation.
