Ardyne Point

Ardyne Point is a headland on the Cowal peninsula in Argyll and Bute, Scotland.

Offshore of the point, the waters of the Kyles of Bute, to the west, and Loch Striven, to the north, meet the Firth of Clyde, to the south and east.

Run by Sir Robert McAlpine, it constructed three concrete gravity platforms for use in the North Sea.

Operated by the Oil and Pipelines Agency, it receives diesel and aviation fuel by coastal tanker, and provides supplies to Royal Navy and other NATO vessels.
