Off the Angolan coast – near the capital city Luanda – is one of the biggest offshore oil platforms. A highly qualified French doctor is developing a preventive medicine for the about 1,400 persons working onboard every day.

His goal is to detect all the pathologies – including the seemingly most innocuous ones – in this isolated environment in order to severely reduce the number of emergency evacuations; block 17 is 200 kilometers from the coast after all.
