All of the Hercules rigs are jackup drilling rig. Ripcharts doesn't have many jackups on it. Hiltons would have the location I bet.

It was reported by Walter Oil and Gas Corporation that a blowout has occurred on the Hercules 265 Jackup Rig located at ST220 Well A003.

The rig was performing completion operations.
