It has been a week now since the tragedy at the Pembroke refinery.
So far we know who died, how long it took to extinguish the fire and the size of the tank where the event started. However, whilst we know an investigation is ongoing I am a bit surprised that we do not know what material was stored in the tank, and the others in the vicinity including the road tanker.
Another thing that surprises and shocks me a little is that statements from Chevron are so well hidden on their website. Going to 'News' section and selecting either 'Press releases' or 'In the news' comes up with nothing. It is only if you 'Media resources' that you then get a link to 'updates' and then you get to Statements about the accident. In face, I have looked several times and only just found this.
For the record the statements were as follows:
2 June 2011: Confirming four people have been killed on site
3 June 2011: Chevron is saddened. Plant remains fully operational
6 June 2011: Four minutes silence and book of condolences. More information about the incident and emergency response.
