"Another 24-hour stoppage has been applied across all 3 facilities with 15 percent of Downstream members enacting rolling stoppages/bans after midday today," an Offshore Alliance representative, who declined to be named, said on Sunday.

Offshore Alliance on Saturday said it intended to extend industrial action for a further two weeks to mid-October.
