Oil tanker and a Norwegian navy frigate collided off Norway’s west coast on Thursday, injuring eight people and triggering the temporary shutdown of a North Sea crude export terminal, Norway’s top gas processing plant and several offshore fields. The frigate, which recently took part in a major NATO military exercise, was aground and listing on one side, live television pictures showed. The Norwegian military was attempting to save the ship. The tanker had left Equinor’s Sture oil shipment terminal with a cargo of crude, and the facility was shut for several hours on Thursday as a result.
