I keep hearing that oil rigs would be a great survival fortress and I caan see all the ovious reasons. But I keep hearing that it would provied an infinite amout of fuel wich is simply untrue the machinarie needed to extract and refine the crude would be incredibly complex and impossible for the untrained to use. Also many of the systems that make life there bearable require power and would shut down exposeing survivors to harsh sea climates. Also fires could be started easily with the saftey systems down, they would spread fast without quick expert response and consume the rig killing many and leaving the others stranded in raftes.
