Welcome to "Diatom: The Interactive Oceanic Research and Adventure Hub," an extraordinary project set within a repurposed oil rig in the North Ocean. Our visionary initiative combines tourism and cutting-edge research to create a dynamic destination that celebrates the mass cultivation of green diatoms, promotes sustainability, and educates visitors on the vital role of oceans in combating climate change. Through the transformation of the oil rig, we breathe new life into its structure and contribute to groundbreaking research on diatoms and their remarkable ability to mitigate ocean acidification. The rig features a cutting-edge thermal tensile facade, equipped with self-shading capabilities and supported by high-tensile steel wires. This innovative design optimizes natural light and ventilation while ensuring structural stability, with the interior layer crafted from durable sail fabric. Inside the rig, you'll discover our remarkable diatom ocean farm, where these microscopic organisms thrive and purify seawater. A liquid spiral transfer system circulates water from the depths of the ocean to the roof and back, creating a dynamic and sustainable ecosystem. Immerse yourself in the wonders of our oceans at the ocean bar, connecting with their beauty and importance. The "Diatom" project represents the perfect fusion of innovation, sustainability, and economic viability. By repurposing the oil rig, we create a vibrant tourist attraction while contributing to vital research and addressing environmental challenges. Join us on this transformative journey as we explore new frontiers in oceanic research and adventure. Welcome to "Diatom: The Interactive Oceanic Research and Adventure Hub."
