Each dredge would then be tipped inboard and the scallops emptied by pulling a line over the emptying derrick from the base of the dredge. |

A 350 ft derrick will support the six-mile drill pipe, which could take more than a year to drive through the crust. |
The derrick cranes being used for erection were then moved forward to the next segment and the cycle was repeated. |
