I know not but something moved them...

More than eighty offshore workers have been transferred from a North Sea platform after an oil leak. The problem was discovered last night on Shell's Brent Bravo platform.

The oil leak was discovered in the utility shaft of the Brent Bravo platform one hundred and sixteen miles north east of Shetland. It's being described by Shell as a small escape of oil. Eighty-six staff were transferred by helicopter to Charlie Delta, a nearby installation.

According to a Scottish Spotters list, there are two Pumas in for a refuel and night stop and the Sea King had been in to ARI and was then in to ABZ for a refuel prior to going home.
