Thirty years on, the scale and magnitude of the Piper Alpha disaster 鈥� the world鈥檚 worst offshore oil disaster 鈥� continues to shock. The adjustment for those families whose loved ones did survive was as great as those who were bereaved, with the physical and psychological changes in survivors now recognised as symptomatic of PTSD 鈥� post traumatic stress disorder.

A well-known spokesman for survivors and their families was the late Bob Ballantyne, whose own family life was fundamentally changed following the tragedy, as he devoted his remaining years to supporting the families of victims. A delayed response to grief was felt strongly by his daughter Iona years after his death through cancer. When watching footage of the burning oil rig, she finally felt the impact of her loss and understood the difficulties her father faced during his years living as a survivor.

To understand and process her own thoughts and loss she visits other families, who like her, were direct witnesses to the consequences of the disaster and the changes it forced upon them.
