from the Sinopec Terminal in the jurisdiction: the metal hose at the junction of the steel
approach bridge of the “Chengzheng” barge of the petrochemical terminal in the Xinxikou
waters collapsed due to excessive wear and tear under high pressure. Part of the oil
“splash into the river”. And the due to the electrostatic device failure, it happened spark
and the fire broke out in the barge.
The "dangerous situation" was the order. The Naxi Maritime Department immediately
organized the elite personnel to board the "Sea Patrol 12272" ship and rushed to the
"location place" to rescue. The sea patrol ship arrived at the scene at around 10:15. First,
it occupied the right bank side of the channel and commanded the coordination department's
official boat and the “Environmental Protection 2” ship to lay out the oil booms and
put the oil absorbent pads to carry out the residual oil recovery work. The ship issued an
early warning message to inform them that the waters are dealing with “dangerous
conditions” and paying attention to it when passing. Subsequently, the law enforcement
officers commanded the crew of the "Sea Patrol 12272" ship to sail near the "fire" incident,
and fired the "Integrity" barge with the firefighting gun of the Sinopec Pier. The fire was
