Decommissioning work has started which will finally close the chapter on the decades-old oil terminal at Nigg, operated by Repsol Sinopec Resources UK (RSRUK).
RSRUK confirmed that Liberty Industrial, contracted to carry out the work, has kicked off efforts for the decontamination, demolition and site remediation of the 75-acre Highlands facility.
The Nigg Oil Terminal was commissioned in 1981 by the British National Oil Corporation as part of the Beatrice development.
