FacebookTwitterEmailLinkedin A pipeline carrying petrol from vessels to the Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL) terminal at Paradip Port in Odisha ruptured on 22 May within a restricted area, resulting in a significant fuel spill that contaminated nearby ground and water bodies. The leak was first detected by the Central Industrial Security Force (CISF), which noticed a strong petrol odour while patrolling the area and immediately alerted IOCL authorities. A technical team was deployed to the site and confirmed that the pipeline had burst during the transfer of petrol from a vessel berthed at the oil jetty to the onshore terminal.
