Okay,
Does seem to read that the platform was part of the Oil House facility, being linked thereto. I do see that the oil house itself was not huge.

The large chimney behind the Hotel, could that have been oil fuelled? Hence the lack of need to have a feeder pipe not deep underground to avoid freezing conditions!
