Tanker explosion off the coast of Nigeria
Just reading reports of an explosion on an oil tanker off the coast of Nigeria.
The Trinity Spirit has a crew of 10 on board, not sure if she is a shuttle tanker. Happened in the the Ukpotki oil field.

Sadly the vessel, which is over 40 years old and being used as a storage platform, has been lost with 3 crew confirmed dead, 4 missing and 3 survivors.
