🚨 Breaking News from Milford Haven! 🚨
Thick black smoke is darkening the skies as a fire erupts at the old oil refinery site in Milford Haven. The drama unfolded on Monday evening with fire crews racing to the Impala Terminal. Plumes of smoke can be seen billowing into the sky—definitely not something you want to miss, but fire and police services urge everyone to stay clear for safety reasons.
Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service report the fire involves a disused oil tanker, and specialist officers are still on site tackling the blaze to ensure it stays confined. The call first came in just after 5 pm, so the emergency services have been busy keeping things under control since then.
If you’re wondering what this place is now, the Impala Terminal isn’t just any old site. It’s set for a green transformation into a hydrogen production facility. This forms part of the West Wales Hydrogen project, which recently got the go-ahead for a hydrogen gas pipeline. Once a bustling hub for petroleum, this location is gearing up to play a pivotal role in green energy.
Stay tuned for more updates on this blazing situation. And remember, safety first! Keep clear of the area and let the professionals do their work. 🌫️🚒
