Comparison case to Kielland — four years later, sunny weather, listing 45° over three days, everyone survived. Failure traced to a left-open hatch.
Four years later, off Brazil, Petrobras had a similar failure. There are nice pictures from three days of sunny weather of this thing listing at about 45 degrees — a half-billion-dollar oil rig listing at 45 degrees. There was nothing they could do. Everybody got off, no one died in that one. But they left a hatch open. So there's a reason you're supposed to yell at people if they leave hatches open.
