Firefighters brought a fire at a refinery in Iran’s giant South Pars gas field under control on Tuesday, an official announced, saying the blaze has not caused any casualties, Tasnim reports.
Speaking to the Tasnim News Agency, Qassem Qaedi, crisis management coordinator in the southern province of Busheher, said firefighters have brought the fire under control.
It had broken out at a waste storage tank in the 6th refinery unit of South Pars gas field’s phases 15 and 16.
The firefighting operation is in good progress, he added, predicting that the blaze would be extinguished shortly.
The fire poses no threat to the other facilities in the complex, as other refineries are operating normally, he assured.
The South Pars gas field, whose development has been divided into 28 phases, is located in the Persian Gulf straddling the maritime border between Iran and Qatar.
