Piper oilfield
The Piper oilfield is a substantial North Sea oilfield. Oil extracted from it is piped to Scotland, where it is refined at a purpose built refinery on the island of Flotta, in the Orkney Islands.
This field was once drilled by Piper Alpha, site of one of the world's worst oil platform disasters in terms of lives lost and petroleum spilled.
