had this knocking around for many years, seems quite relevant at the moment.
Do you think BP will want to buy it back
Can't find any others for sale or any info about it online...

Wonder if Shell done one similar.

got some F1 t-shirts to celebrate ferrari winning the championship, ferrari started to have them made before they actually won and ended up losing, so they made 20 something shirts then stopped, 1996 or 1997 season.
damon hill signed photo after winning
loads of different pin badges, poker dice, odd promo stuff
just random things my dad has been given over the years and he has passed on to me, my bro and sister

I think that Heath guy (Energy Minister) got one of these when they turned the taps on from the first BO Field in the North Sea - (Forties was it?)
Might be worth a few quid mate

save it for when your engine is running low on oil
keep it in the glove box or something in case of emergency

seen a few 'gifts' like this... Fee's old man has one or two. You used to get them when you were involved on the projects.
I get jackets, shirts, torches these days - but would prefer something like that

Forties pipeline which runs 105 miles from the Ex BP, Apache Forties field (via unity riser) to the terminal at cruden bay was comissioned in 1975 ( Im guessing this crude was drawn there or possibly Kinneil or Hound Point in 1976?
