Rig built in England in 1959 and worked for a while in the North Sea and the gulf as offshore drilling rig used for the purposes of exploration and extraction of crude oil In 1965 moved rig to work in South Africa are .... In 1970 the company Medbar Alasirailip Btagyr rig to work in the Gulf of Suez
Borer began the process of the news read by President Gamal Abdel Nasser in the daily news review, which was the most important world events and was a small content, including news that Israel bought the rigs for the oil from one of the foreign companies
The President wrote in his handwriting on the News visa to Sami Sharaf intelligence chief text: Sami cost intelligence to discuss this matter and that the true news form a committee to meet with the Commission's daily work and the participation of elements of military intelligence in agreement with the team Fawzi include a range of frogs, marine and work plan for the elimination of This signature Digger (Gamal Abdel Nasser)
Informed of these instructions for each of the following Amin Howeidi supervisor of the General Intelligence, Mr. Shaarawy Gomaa, Lt. Mohammed Fawzi and agreed to form working groups to gather information and other training on the implementation of what will be decided for this process
