Magellan (MMP) Tank Farm Catches Fire Injuring Seven Workers
Read MoreHide Full Article
Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. suffered a massive setback recently as fire broke out in a storage tank at its Texas-based Corpus Christi petroleum facility.
Although the midstream operator followed the emergency response procedures at the site, seven staffs were sadly injured. Disaster management cell is working on determining the cause of the fire and evaluating the consequences. On a positive note, the company spokespersons informed that operations at the tank farm are already made functional post the fire incident. Moreover, air-quality monitoring stations in the locality found no unusual emissions in the area following the fire.
The incident took place when seven employees of the environmental and industrial services firm Shelton Services Inc. were cleaning and inspecting the tank that was holding residual light crude oil. Per Shelton Services, two of the seven injured employees were released from a Corpus Christi hospital on Saturday while five others are in stable condition at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio.
The Magellan Midstream tank farm holds 60 storage tanks with capacity worth 37 million barrels of petroleum and petroleum products, and a small refinery. None of these were affected by the fire explosion.

A select few stocks could skyrocket the most as rollout accelerates for this new tech. Early investors could see gains similar to buying Microsoft in the 1990s. Zacks’ just-released special report reveals 8 stocks to watch. The report is only available for a limited time.
