UK Fisheries Offshore Oil and Gas Legacy Trust Fund Limited

About

The charity's main purpose is to provide fishermen with data concerning oil/gas infrastructure to minimise risks arising from interaction with these items. This initiative dates back to 1977 when a fishing vessel, the Westhaven sank after her fishing gear was snagged on an oil pipeline. Four men were lost. The charity obtains infrastructure data from a number of sources and processes this for use on fishing vessels. It also supplies FishSAFE units for fishing vessels, incorporating visual and audible alarms warning fishermen when they are in the proximity of oil/gas assets.
