Aye but when we're on them we call it the rig

When I would work on offshore platforms during planned shutdowns there would be full or close to full POB (personnel on board), which could be around 150-300 or more depending on the size and capabilities of the platform.

As Mendip has stated, many are operated from shore now with minimum POB as possible on board.
