Oil Rig in the North Sea, modern day

The White Swan oil rig is one of the happiest and most productive in the industry. It is run by husband and wife team Graham and Julie. Julie is a great boss, but not a great wife, always taking her husband for granted. The whole team go on shore leave to the fabulous fun-palace that is Mermaid Island except for Julie, who elects to stay on the rig. Will Graham succumb to the charms of Mermaid Island? (yes) How will Julie react when she finds out? (poorly). And will the oil rig pressure valves blow, threatening an explosion that will kill them all? (you betcha).
