MCP also addresses challenges associated with early monetisation of oil and gas fields and consists of a deck box, four-chord square truss structure in addition to a mat foundation. It can operate in oil fields with soft seabed.

The platform also features self-elevating feature which eliminates the need for expensive offshore construction fleet at the time of deployment and relocation.
