A GIANT oil rig arrived in Dundee on Friday for general maintenance work.
The GSF Galaxy II, which stands 557ft tall, is berthed at the Prince Charles Wharf.
Owned by US company Transocean, the 11-year-oldstructure is expected to remain at the harbour for up to 10 weeks.
The Galaxy II jackup rig has three legs and can operate in water almost 400ft deep and can drill to a depth of around 30,000ft.
During previous visits of rigs to the city there were numerous complaints from residents who said they interfered with TV reception.
Some of the worst affected were in the Craigiebank area in the east of the city. Householders believed the rig was blocking the signal from the Tay Bridge transmitter.
East end councillor and Dundee City Council economic development convener Councillor Will Dawson said he hoped there would be no problems. He also welcomed the work the rig will create at the harbour over the next few weeks.
