"Spill 46 miles off Shetland is being monitored by air and said to be heading away from land and dispersing"
"About 95 tonnes of oil have been leaked into the North Sea from a BP platform, the company has said.
The leak is about two and a half times smaller than the biggest North Sea spill in recent years, at Shell’s Gannet platform off Aberdeen in 2011.
The spill from the Clair platform is being monitored from the air by plane which, combined with modelling, shows the oil moving away from land in a northerly direction."
