Rise of the Machines: Supership

SINOPSE

Join the crew of the MV Treasure as they attempt to transport a massive oil rig over a vast distance. Explore the engineering that enable this ocean giant to float.
This episode uses stunning CGI animation to explode open a 50,000-ton Mega Lift Ship - the MV Treasure - to reveal the extraordinary technology that it depends on to carry a 12,000 tonne oilrig on its back halfway around the world. In Singapore, the oilrig construction capital of the world, this $220 million oilrig has just come off the production line, and oilman Manuel Olea needs it delivered to the Gulf of Mexico pronto. This colossal challenge falls to the MV Treasure - a metal monster longer than two American football pitches, and packing the power of 80 Hummers.
