2024年1月8日、貨物船で火災が発生した。 ストライド テキサス州ラポートのバーバーズ・カット・マリン・ターミナルでバンカリング作業中に発生した火災。この火災で乗組員2人が死亡、1人が重傷を負った。火災はディーゼル・オイルがエンジン・ルームにあふれたことから発生し、大きな被害をもたらした。この火災は ストライド は最終的に$1,200万円の全損となった。

米国運輸安全委員会（NTSB）の調査により、火災の原因は同船のディーゼル油タンクに不適切なバルブが取り付けられていたためであることが明らかになった。火災の6週間前、左舷二重底のディーゼル油タンクに交換用のバルブが発注された。しかし、取り付けられたバルブは、本船の燃料油系統図に指定されたタイプとは異なっていた。不正確なバルブはアングルストップ逆止弁で、開いていても軽油が一方向にしか流れなかった。このため、バンカリング中に軽油が別のタンクから溢れ出し、共通ベントラインに導かれた。

その結果、それまで密閉されていたベントパイプの小さな部分から軽油が流れ出し、密閉材が破損した。軽油はその後エンジンルームに流れ込み、作動中の機械に接触して発火し、火災が発生した。

火災の深刻さをさらに助長したのは、船舶の安全管理システムで義務付けられているバンカリング作業中に、乗組員がタンクレベルの監視を怠ったことだった。燃料補給の手順では、タンクレベルを監視するために少なくとも4人の技術乗組員を勤務させることが義務付けられているが、火災発生時には3人しかいなかった。

The incident occurred when the 78,500-cbm Very Large Gas Carrier (VLGC) Captain Nikolas, built in 1992, and the 6,500-cbm fully pressurized gas carrier B-LPG Sophia, built in 1997, were separating after completing a lightering operation. Reports indicate that the flames ignited during the disconnection process.

Fortunately, there were no reported injuries due to the quick intervention of the Bangladesh Navy and Coast Guard, who responded swiftly to contain the situation. The estimated damage from this incident is around $500,000, raising concerns about the safety standards of vessels involved in transporting sanctioned oil and gas.

Both vessels have changed hands multiple times in recent years and operated under various flags of convenience, often evading international scrutiny. This fire serves as a critical reminder of the importance of stringent safety measures and protocols in the maritime industry.
