A large fire broke out on an offshore Pemex platform in the Cantarell oil field in the Bay of Campeche early Friday morning, injuring six workers.
A press release by the state-owned oil company said that an explosion on the Nohoch-Alfa joining platform caused the blaze, which spread to a compression platform. More than 300 workers were evacuated.

I hope those workers make a speedy and complete recovery. While I’m sure everyone on offshore platforms prepares for fires it must still be so scary if/when it happens.
