The closest oil platform to mainland UK is the Elgin-Franklin field, which is located in the North Sea, approximately 150 miles (240 kilometers) off the coast of Scotland. This field is operated by TotalEnergies and is composed of several platforms that extract oil and gas from beneath the seabed. The proximity of these platforms to the UK mainland highlights the significant role of the North Sea in the country's energy sector.
Offshore means to be away from the coast. For example: There are several oil-rigs working in the North Sea, just offshore from Aberdeen, Scotland.
Yes, there are offshore oil rigs in the North Sea, which is relatively close to Edinburgh, Scotland. The nearest oil fields are located to the northeast of the city, with various rigs operating in the region. However, the majority of these rigs are situated further out to sea, typically around 50 to 100 miles from the Scottish coast.

The Piper Alpha oil platform, which was built in the late 1970s, had an estimated construction cost of around $1.5 billion. The platform was operated by Occidental Petroleum and was considered one of the most productive platforms in the North Sea. However, it was tragically destroyed in a catastrophic explosion in 1988, leading to significant loss of life and prompting major changes in offshore safety regulations.

Oil will burn.
The most effective method for extinguishing an oil fire is to smother it by cutting off its oxygen supply. This can be done by covering the fire with a fire blanket, sand, or a specialized foam designed for oil fires. Water should not be used to extinguish an oil fire as it can cause the fire to spread.
Oil spill did a lot of damage, but no homes were destroyed.

"palm oil" hasn't destroyed any of the rain forests. Humans have destroyed some of the forest to grow oil palms, but is is a small percent compared to logging and "slash and burn" agriculture.
