Naftna ploščad

Polpotopljiva naftna ploščad P-51 ob obali Brazilije

Ploščad Mittelplate v Severnem morju

Naftna ploščad oz. platforma (ang. Offshore platform ali oil rig) je velika struktura na morju, ki se uporablja za vrtanje, črpanje, procesiranje nafte ali plina. Kdaj se uporablja tudi za kratkotrajno hranjenje produktov. Pridobljeno nafto pošiljajo naprej po podmorskih naftovodih (plinovodih) ali pa na FPSO, ki jo potem naloži na tankerje.

Delavci v veliko primerih tudi živijo na ploščadi. Po navadi se jih oskrbuje z ladjami, delavce pa največkrat prevažajo helikopterji, ker so hitrejši.
