Letters / Want to share your memories of Sullom Voe?
I am a lecturer at Glasgow University researching the history of areas transformed by the energy economy over the last 50 years from a workplace and community perspective.
Shetland is an important part of my research project which includes a study of the Sullom Voe oil terminal and gas plant. As part of my work, I am conducting oral histories with current and former workers, their family members and local residents who have connections with the terminal.
I will be in Shetland from 28 June to 2 July when I will be recording interviews.
If you would like to take part in an interview or have any questions about my research, please email me on ewan.gibbs@glasgow.ac.uk.
