Unusual Driller

The contributor says: "A rig belong to Sinopec, China."

This driller seems to be a floater based on a catamaran made from two normal sea-going hulls. How did it maintain position? Anchors, or some kind of early DPS? Any idea when this photo would have been taken?

Isn't this the C E Thornton previously owned by R&B?
