Sullom Voe is an inlet between North Mainland and Northmavine on Shetland in Scotland, and an oil terminal sited on its shore.

The Voe, the longest in Shetland, and partially sheltered by the island of Yell (island) was used as a military base during World War II both by the Royal Norwegian Air Force and by the Royal Air Force because of its location. With the coming of the oil terminal, the remains of the airbase were upgraded and modernised to create Scatsta Airport which is primarily used to service the terminal.

The first crude oil was discovered in the North Sea in 1969, and soon thereafter construction began on the oil terminal at Sullom Voe, north east of the village of Brae, which became operational in 1975 and was completed in 1982, becoming the the largest in Europe. Oil flows via pipeline from the Brent oilfield and Ninian Oil Field oil fields to be loaded onto Tanker (ship)s at Sullom Voe. It has recently begun to serve North Atlantic oil fields as well.

When Shetland was identified as a location to provide pipeline terminal and support facilities for off-shore oil installations in the northern North Sea, corporations involved had expected to each build their own terminal facilities. However, wishing to minimise the negative impacts of the industry, the Shetland Islands Council (SIC), with power granted to it by the UK Parliament in the 1974 Zetland County Council Act (ZCC Act), were able to contain all pipeline terminal facilities at the Sullom Voe site, now operated by BP on behalf of a consortium of companies operating in the North Sea and North Atlantic.
