Oil Rig Hotels


Jetson Green published an article back in February talking about an innovative reuse for oil rigs; convert them to luxury eco-hotels. The "green-ness" of the idea becomes a little more apparent when you read the article and find out that the standard disposal method for abandoned oil rigs is to blow them up. When you consider that in the Gulf of Mexico alone there are about 4,000 of these bad boys, the concept starts to have some green merit.

It's an interesting thought. I don't exactly know what your demand generators would be, but I suppose it could be neat. Maybe it's the trendy rooms, or if not, it's definitely the water ski performers that would push me over the edge. You just don't see too many good water ski performers these days...
