Naftna ploščad
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.
TipiUredi
Naftne ploščadi in vrtine so med največjimi gibljivimi objekti človeške izdelave sploh. Obstaja več tipov:
