Oil, Gas and Gold

BBC Radio Scotland - Business Scotland, Oil, Gas and Gold

Gillian Marles hears about recent developments in the gas, oil and gold markets.

Gillian Marles hears about recent developments in the gas, oil and gold markets, following the first output beginning to flow from the Laggan-Tormore gas field.

As the first gas from the Laggan-Tormore field begins flowing to the mainland through a new plant in Shetland, Gillian Marles, hears of the development. In challenging conditions, thousands of workers were employed in the construction. But with oil and gas prices low, is this a last fling for the North or start of a new phase? Also as global stock markets remain gripped in a state of panic, investors rush to buy gold.
