Piper Alpha anniversary honoured

The 20th anniversary of the Piper Alpha disaster is being marked with memorial ceremonies on Sunday.

A total of 167 men died in the North Sea platform disaster on 6 July, 1988. There were 61 survivors.

A remembrance service is taking place at 1400 BST at the Kirk of St Nicholas in Aberdeen to mark the anniversary.

There will then be an Act of Remembrance at the Piper Alpha Memorial in Hazlehead Park at 1600 BST. A wreath will also be placed at sea.

The simultaneous event offshore on the Piper Bravo platform will see the wreath placed in the sea towards the spot where the Piper Alpha stood.
