Oil spill report submitted to Crown Office

-

A report into an oil spill from a platform off the coast of Shetland has been submitted to the Crown Office.

About 95 tonnes of oil was released into the sea from the Clair platform in October 2016.

Environmen­t Secretary Roseanna Cunningham later reassured MSPS at Holyrood after energy firm BP shut down the platform, saying it posed “minimal risk” to the marine environmen­t.
