An offshore worker has been airlifted to hospital after being injured in the North Sea.

Shell said the incident happened on the Curlew floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessel in the Central North Sea, 130 miles (210km) off Aberdeen.

Shell said the worker suffered the injury at about 10:00.

A spokeswoman for Wood later said its subcontractor had been discharged from hospital.
