The Alexander Kielland platform capsized in the Norwegian North Sea in 1980 , killing 123 people.

The Norwegian government has previously apologised for failings in its investigations.

Study by the University of Stavanger concluded authorities failed the survivors and victims' families.

Laura Fleming , whose father Michael was among those killed, said the report should help get to the truth.
