How hires is hires

How much detail can a 39MP record? Ok, below is a photo taken at 39MP taken on a 50mm lens, F4.8.
You will see a tiny dot at the place where the sun is. It is actually a oil platform in Miri.
I cropped the above photo and now you can see a bigger "dot" showing the oil platform. Click on the image above to see a 1:1 image. That oil platform is quite a distance from where I stand. Anyone knows the actual distance?

most probably West Lutong C platform, about 12km from shore.
