Production at Marathon Oil’s Brae Alpha oil platform in the UK North Sea has been temporarily shut in following a gas alert.
Four helicopters were scrambled to the platform, which is located about 250 kilometres north-east of Aberdeen, following the alert at 1919 GMT yesterday, but they had been turned around.
Reuters quoted a Marathon spokeswoman as saying that there were no reports of any injuries and that none of the 171 people on board the platform had been evacuated.
She added that production will not restart until the investigation into the source and cause of the alert was completed and it was deemed safe to do so.
Brae Alpha is part of the Brae complex, which flows 12.32 million cubic metres of gas and 39,798 barrels of liquids per day through the Sage and Forties pipeline.
A spokeswoman at the Ministry of Defence said four Royal Air Force helicopters were dispatched following reports of an incident at the platform but had been told to return to base.
