Engine room fire on tanker off Chattogram
A fire broke out in the engine room of the 'Meghna Trader' at the Charlie Pt. of the Chattogram's outer anchorage, near the Parki Beach, on May 28, 2026, at around 7:30 a.m. The tanker had arrived at the anchorage on May 26, laden with a consignment of 12000 tons soybean oil from Indonesia. The incident triggered an immediate coordinated emergency response mobilisation of maritime rescue units such as Chittagong Port Authority (CPA), the Bangladesh Navy, and the Coast Guard. Soon after the fire broke out, the vessel's crew evacuated the engine room and released carbon dioxide into the sealed compartment to suppress the flames and contain the fire within the section. The CPA dispatched the tugs 'Kandari 3' and 'Kandari 11', which were immediately joined by the Bangladesh Navy tug BNT ''Sebok' and the Bangladesh Coast Guard tug 'Promotto'. .The Coast Guard ship 'Shyamal Bangla' and additional rescue teams later took part in the operation. Following the successful containment of the blaze at 11.30 a.m., the Chattogram Port Authority, Bangladesh Coast Guard, Bangladesh Navy and the vessel’s local agent USL remained aboard the ship to monitor the situation. All 22 crew members were rescued safely, and no casualties were reported.
