Tanker assisted in fire in Stavfjord
After the police received a notification about a ship fire in the Brufjord on May 15, 2013, at 12.17 a.m., the Flora fire brigade came out on board the Norwegian catamaran ferry "Øyservice" (IMO: 9393591) and found the casualty in Stavfjord. It turned out to be the Norwegian 50-foot f/v"Vestervåg SF-45-F" with homeport Florø with a crew of three on board which was on fire. The "Bergen Star" which was heading southward to Mongstad when receiving notification of the fire between Askrova and Svanøy also turned around and headed to the casualty. At 1 p.m. the fire department went on board with smoke divers. There were no visible flames, but a lot of smoke. The fire must have started in the engine. At 1.30 p.m. the fire department reported that they controlled the fire in the engine room. The vessel was then towed to Florø by the "Øyservice".
