Character names = Names of rigs in real life

[edit]

I am not quite sure how to source something like this, because I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere and don't know the intentions of the creators, but here's a thing that cannot be a coincidence: anyone that's worked in the North Sea oil industry for a little while will have noticed that the following character names are also the names of offshore fields/platforms in real life:

Magnus
Fulmer (Fulmar)
Alwyn
Hutton
Dunlin
Murchison
Heather
