Shell detects second Gannet Alpha North Sea leak point

A second leak point has been found in the flow line beneath the Gannet Alpha oil platform, 113 miles (180km) off Aberdeen.

Shell has been dealing with the release of an estimated 216 tonnes - 1,300 barrels - from a leak near the platform discovered last week.

The oil company said it was working to tackle what was described as a "second pathway" of leakage.
