Fire in refinery

The CSB is proceeding to investigate a fire in a refinery in the US. The fire was apparently caused by a vapor leak. No one was reportedly killed. It appears that it was a cooling tower fire caused by a flammable vapour ingress. Read the news article and see pictures of the damage in this link.
Thanks to Sanjeevi for sending the link.
