Giant fire storms Pemex oil tanker “Burgos” in Gulf of Mexico (VIDEO)

A dramatic fire broke out on board of oil tanker “Burgos” in the Gulf of Mexico triggering the urgent evacuation of the 31 members of the crew.

The rescue teams are struggling to put out the blaze that engulfed the deck of the ship wich is property of the Mexican state-owned company Pemex (Petróleos Mexicanos or Mexican Petroleums).

The fire that wreaked havoc on Burgos on Saturday emerged as a result of an explosion, whose cause is yet not known.

The vessel was reportedly transporting 80,000 barrels of diesel, 71,000 of gasoline and 16,000 barrels of desulfurized gasoline, according to Mexico’s communications and transport ministry. It has a capacity to carry 270,000 barrels.

Burgos was sailing about 15 kilometers off the coast of Boca del Rio in Veracruz, when the incident sparked.

Pemex revealed in a Twitter message that the crew was safely rescued while reassuring that there is no safety risk to the local population.

Mexican navy ships rushed to the spot where they set up barriers around the tanker just to secure the perimeter in case an oil leak occurs.
