Fire in deck containers
Angolan firefighters on May 27, 2011, were struggling to control a fire on the "UAL Antwerp" in the entrance of Luanda port. A 40-ft-container aboard the ship which just had arrived coming from Houston had caught fire on June 26 at 11:30 a.m. LT, and the fire spread to other containers some of which were feared to contain petroleum products or nitrogen. Dense fume started to emerge, while offshore suppliers rushed to the scene and started with fire fighting attempts. The fire was obviously contained in the morning of June 28, and the vessel beached 100 metres off the shore.
