In addition to the semi-submersible platform, field development uses a network of wet-tree subsea wells.<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.offshore-technology.com/projects/atlantisplatform/| title=Offshore Technology - Atlantis Deepwater Oil and Gas Platform, Gulf of Mexico}}</ref> The subsea elements of the Atlantis field were designed and fabricated by PS Fabricators. It is one of the largest to undergo systems integration testing (SIT) on land, also at PS Fabricators SIT site. This includes positioning the components as they would be positioned subsea, pressure testing, pig testing, etc. The system itself is rigorously tested to ensure its safety subsea.
