A fire erupted on Saturday at an oil terminal in Venezuela when a hose used for supplying gasoline to a tanker broke lose, the country’s oil minister Tareck El Aissami said.<\/p>\n

The fire, which occurred early on Saturday at one of Guaraguao terminal’s berths, located on Venezuela’s eastern coast, was extinguished shortly after, but also affected Panama-flagged oil vessel Larko and interrupted the terminal’s operations, according to shipping sources.<\/p>\n

No injuries have been reported. The affected vessel was moved away from the terminal, the sources said.<\/p>\n

Manuel Ferreira, mayor of the coastal town of Lecheria, close to Puerto la Cruz, also confirmed the incident.<\/p>\n

The Guaraguao terminal, operated by state company PDVSA, mostly handles fuel for domestic use.<\/p>\n
