BUSINESSES from Strathclyde are off to the world's biggest oil and gas

exhibition.

Fourteen firms are taking the high road to Stavanger in Norway for the

Offshore Northern Seas event from August 23 to 26.

The firms who include Motherwell Bridge, Turner & Hickman and Seaboard

Lloyd are part of the Strathclyde Business Development trade exhibition.

The four day event is both an exhibition and a conference offering

firms a showcase for their wares.

The conference was established 20 years ago and since then has become

a major event in the oil industry.
