That's so annoying. Yesterday I was on the production platform and there was a perfect view to this competition. The underside of a jack up oil rig with the sea in the background.
The only problem.... No photos allowed. I doubt they'd have let me take a hot work permit out for that even if I could have been bothered with all the paper work. My phone camer is crap too.

Is that the whole electronic equipment next to inflammable materials malarky? You should ask for a risk assessment of using a camera in a sealed underwater housing/bag.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Yeah, for some reason they get a bit twitchy about a potential spark when you're literally stood directly on top of a dozen or so live gas wells.

All the lighting is sealed to prevent sparks etc reaching the atmosphere. They'd need a hot work permit to open them up.
