They don't tend to be used as transportation themselves most of the time. Basically, they're like some of the oil rigs out there. Only mobile when you need to move your base of operations, because to do move just the gear and personnel means abandoning the platform itself as no longer useful.
The rest would be movable just for the sake of emergencies. They just didn't have whatever drive system that was used removed when they were 'parked'.
