Reports emerged on a fire on board of general cargo ship AAL DALIAN, berthed at Houston since Dec 6, on arrival from Manzanillo Mexico. Fire is said to be big or probably, major, but surprisingly, there are no news in media or any other sources. As of 1300 UTC Dec 8, the ship still berthed at Houston, with fireboat nearby. Awaiting updates, details.
General cargo ship AAL DALIAN, IMO 9498470, dwt 31000, built 2009, flag Liberia, manager COLUMBIA SHIPMANAGEMENT LTD, Cyprus.
@mattlanza @SpaceCityWX have you guys heard anything about what’s going on with a big fire in the Pasadena/port area? Super intense flames you can see from Space Center Houston. pic.twitter.com/hgMcrslTE0
