British Trader
BP Shipping’s LNG carrier British Trader (built 2002) will be delayed by several days after an electrical fire broke out onboard.

A spokesman for BP confirms to TradeWinds that a fire broke out in a high voltage transformer onboard the 138,000-cbm LNG ship while the vessel was 100 miles off Durban, South Africa.

He described the incident as “operational” and said no-one was injured.
