Statoil: Artist Katie Melua set a new world record

Artist Katie Melua set a new world record when she performed at the bottom of one of the concrete shafts on the Troll A platform on Monday 2 October.

The concert venue 303 metres below sea level qualified for “the world’s deepest underwater concert performed in front of an audience”.

Together with her five band members, the Georgian-Irish artist played for around 35 minutes.
