The oil rig Atwood Achiever is only a few weeks away from arriving Western Sahara. After a stop-over in Singapore, it is now heading towards the occupied territory.
For some days, the oil platform Atwood Achiever has been anchored off Singapore harbour. Now it has departed, heading towards the occupied territory of Western Sahara.
