The Shell Prelude is the biggest thing constructed by man ever put in the water.

Displacing more than six aircraft carriers, it's hundreds of miles off Australia's coast.

Built in 2017, it's an LNG platform, chained to the seabed with sixteen of the largest chains ever made.

It's been prone to teething troubles and shutdowns since it began. So the question is whether the Prelude is the beginning of a new age

Or a costly failed experiment.
