Grangemouth fire

INVESTIGATORS are looking into the cause of a fire at the Grangemouth oil refinery early yesterday morning.

The small fire started just after 2am when oil spilled onto piping at the plant in Stirlingshire. Some 40 firefighters, six engines and a command unit tackled the blaze in a part of the site known as the HydroCracker Unit.

Firefighters were at the scene for about three hours, working with emergency staff from Ineos, which owns the plant. No one was hurt and the cause of the blaze is not known.
