 Fire Explosion at Cawthorne Channel Leaves Many Feared Dead, Crew Members Missing


A massive fire outbreak at the Cawthorne Channel facility in Bonny, Rivers State, has caused panic, with fears of multiple casualties and a major oil spill into surrounding waters.


Search operations are ongoing for missing crew members, while the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) faces calls for compensation and environmental remediation.


Community leader Daniel Pollyn confirmed that the fire, which erupted on February 19, 2025, engulfed two flow stations near Degema LGA. While no local residents were affected, he blamed NNPCL’s negligence for the disaster and demanded an investigation, clean-up, and compensation.


The Youths and Environmental Advocacy Centre (YEAC-Nigeria) reported that crude oil had spilled into Bonny waterways, calling on the National Oil Spill Detection and Response Agency (NOSDRA) to assess the damage and hold those responsible accountable.


As of 24 hours after the incident, NNPCL has not released an official statement, fueling public frustration over its response to the crisis.
