Welcome back to my channel. Inside the $5 billion floating theme park built on an offshore oil rig. All in all, it sounds like a crazy idea. Exciting? Yes. Weird? Definitely. Everyone's idea of a good vacation? Not at all. But for those who go, it seems pretty likely that it will at least be the best time they've ever spent on an oil rig.
There are plans for one of the eateries to serve its diners fine dining while perched hundreds of feet above the ground, as if suspended. Numerous rooms at the five-star hotels will provide stunning views of the ocean, while the huge planned stadium can accommodate thousands of people, with the booming sound of concerts featuring some of the biggest names from the world of music. There looks set to be some pretty out-there design on show too, with some of the world's top designers being approached to help come up with some of the looks of the hotel rooms, for instance. Form and function are balanced with aesthetics, with a constant reminder that you're on an old oil rig.
The Rig's boss Raed Bakhri envisions it as a leading adventure tourism destination aiming to attract more than 900,000 visitors annually by 2032. The official website describes the unusual plan as an extreme destination, an entirely new playground for adventure tourism inspired by the design of offshore oil platforms.
Those visiting The Rig can expect to take part in a variety of fun activities, from jet skiing to skydiving and even submarine rides in purpose-built submersibles. The theme park will only be accessible for visitors by cruise ship, ferry, plane, or helicopter.
With development underway by Saudi Arabia's Oil Park Development Company (OPDC), The Rig is set to offer one of the biggest and most thrilling rollercoasters in the world, along with a range of activities, restaurants, hotels, and entertainment options. The project is funded by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund and aims to celebrate the legacy and heritage of the country's oil and gas history.
With a budget in excess of $5 billion, The Rig promises to be a giant floating theme park that goes beyond expectations. Please subscribe, comment, like, share, and follow for more content.
