Platform evakueret efter gasbrand

Mandag eftermiddag udbrød der brand på en offshore-platform i Det Kaspiske Hav, i Aserbajdsjan. Branden opstod efter en gaslækage under reparationsarbejde på en af brøndene i Gunashli feltet. 49 arbejdere på platformen blev evakueret. Ingen personer kom til skade.

”På trods af alle sikkerhedsforanstaltninger antændtes den udstrømmende gas. Gaslækageen blev standset og branden var fuldstændigt slukket tidlige tirsdag”, skriver Socar og landets beredskabsministerium i en fælles udtalelse.

Platformen drives af Aserbajdsjans statsdrevne olie- og gasselskab, Socar. Selskabet er i gang med at identificere årsagen til ulykken er i gang.

Det er den anden brand på en platform i Gunashli feltet på mindre end et år. I december 2015 forsvandt 30 offshore-arbejdere efter en eksplosion, der ramte Socars platform 10 i Gunashli feltet. Branden opstod, da en kraftig storm var skyld i et brud på en gasledning. Der blev senere bjærget 14 omkomne, mens 16 ikke er fundet.
