In this episode of Compact Disasters, we examine The Piper Alpha Disaster, the catastrophic 1988 explosion and fire on a North Sea oil platform that claimed 167 lives and became the deadliest offshore oil disaster in history. From maintenance errors and permit failures to fire, evacuation chaos, and the Cullen Inquiry that reshaped offshore safety, this episode explores how one platform’s destruction changed an entire industry.
