The Offshore Industry Liaison Committee (OILC) was a trade union set up in the United Kingdom in response to the deaths of 167 workers on the Piper Alpha platform on July 6, 1988. Their deaths would be followed by the death of another worker on the Ocean Odyssey oil rig on September 22, 1988.

The OILC is now a branch of the RMT the National Union of Rail, Maritime and Transport Workers having agreed to merge from April 2008.[1]
