Fishing for mackerel opposite Nigg Point on the Cromarty Firth, Black Isle, Scotland, UK

---

Nigg employed 5000 at the height of the oil and gas boom, but it has been taken steps forward since being taken over by local group Global Energy in 2011. A resurgence in oil and gas work, has quadrupled the number of jobs on the site to about 800. Global reckons it has won enough fabrication and repair work to add another 400 jobs the year.
