Sitting in the car, Xu Li seems to be keeping his eyes closed, but in his mind, he constantly remembers the basic situation of Xingang and the countermeasures.

Xingang is located at the Northeast foot of Dagushan at the southern end of Liaodong Peninsula and southwest of Dayaowan on the Yellow coast. It was founded in 1974 and is a modern deep-water oil port. With a water area of 180 square kilometers and a land area of 1.57 square kilometers, Xingang is an important base for China's crude oil export, from which tens of millions of tons of crude oil are shipped to China and other parts of the world every year. In 2005, the national strategic petroleum reserve was located in Xingang, which further enhanced the important position of Xingang. At present, there are more than 7 million tons of oil products actually stored in each coastal crude oil tank farm. If the fire here can not be controlled in time and spread, the whole Helian will burn in the fire for five years!

Xingang is nearly 50 kilometers away from the urban area of Helian. Xu Li saw fire engines rushing to Xingang all the way. When he was a few kilometers away from Xingang, he could clearly see the billowing smoke on the sea in the distance. When Xu Li arrived at Xingang, it was already more than seven o'clock, and police had set up a cordon around Xingang to prevent people from entering.

As soon as Xu Li got out of the car when he entered Xingang, he saw vice mayor and director of XXX Yu Guangqi. Xu Li looked at the smoke not far away and said, "what's the situation now? Is the fire under control

"Mayor Xu, according to the preliminary investigation, the 300000 ton" offshore strange star "oil tanker of Singapore Pacific oil company was improperly operated when unloading crude oil to the crude oil tank farm of international storage and transportation company, which led to the explosion of the oil pipeline..."

Xu Li suddenly interrupted Yu Guangqi and said, "I don't want to know the reason now. I just want to know if the fire is under control? There is no danger of more serious fire, the worst result will be what! Is there enough firefighters on site and is the relevant fire-fighting materials ready enough? "

Although Yu Guangqi was deputy mayor and director of XXX, he just arrived at the scene less than 20 minutes ago. He only had time to understand some simple situations. He didn't know how to answer the questions raised by Xu Li for a while, so he had to call Li Zhen, deputy director of XXX Municipal Bureau and leader of XXX fire brigade, and said: "Lao Li, please report to Mayor Xu in detail!"

Li Zhen has worked in the fire brigade for many years, participated in countless rescue work, and knew the fire fighting work at the scene like the palm of his hand. Hearing this, he immediately said: "report, at present, the fire has not been effectively controlled. The pipeline on fire was a 900mm diameter crude oil storage tank land pipeline, which later caused a 700mm diameter pipeline fire. When we arrived at the scene, we found that the power distribution room of the pump house in a tank farm was damaged, and it was difficult to shut down the valve and cut off the material for a while. Fortunately, the tanker unloading crude oil left the fire area in time.

At present, with the flow of crude oil leakage, the fire spread and expanded at a very fast speed. Near the oil pipeline where the explosion occurred is the tank farm of PetroChina international storage and transportation company under the jurisdiction of Xingang oil tank farm, which has a total of 20 oil tanks with an inventory capacity of about 1.85 million cubic meters. Around the tank farm, there are a large number of crude oil tank farm, product oil tank farm and liquid chemical product tank farm of other units: on the north side is the national oil tank farm, in which there are 30 100000 m3 oil tanks; On the east side is the heliangnanhai tank farm with a total reserves of 1.32 million cubic meters. There are 12 100000 cubic meters of oil storage tanks in the tank farm. From the port all the way north, there are also big petrochemical plants, which are distributed on the coastline of nearly 100 kilometers, and hundreds of huge oil storage tanks are continuous.

Although it is not known how many oil products are actually stored in each coastal crude oil tank farm at present, the preliminary estimate should be no less than 5 million tons. Next to the South China Sea tank farm of heliangang is the liquid terminal tank farm. There are 51 bulk chemical tanks in the tank farm. The tanks contain strong corrosive, highly toxic and explosive chemical materials such as xylene and toluene. Once the liquid terminal is on fire, only the highly toxic chemicals may cause millions of people to die. Dalian and its surrounding Bohai Bay area will encounter a huge disaster! "

Xu Li was shocked to hear that. If he couldn't control the fire, He Lian would be a city of fire and poison this day!

"How do you put out the fire now, and what are the difficulties?"

"Now we have preliminarily formulated tactics of first control and post elimination. We are mobilizing cement and sand to prepare for containment of spilled crude oil. We set up mobile water cannons and vehicle mounted water cannons for cooling and explosion suppression of threatened tanks, and measures such as foam injection and sand mulching to suppress fire and fire on the ground. Now the main reason is that the distribution room was damaged and the source oil leakage channel could not be cut off for a while. The fire ignited the 100000 cubic meters crude oil tank nearby. Once the oil tank exploded, the consequences would be unimaginable! "

"Can we find the on-site staff? Is there a large amount of crude oil in the nearest oil tank? Will the explosion endanger other nearby oil tanks? " Xu Li asks urgently.

But Li Zhen shook his head and said: "the staff on site don't know the specific situation of the oil tank, and the main person in charge has to go back to check the accounts to determine the fuel reserves in the oil tank!"

"We must ensure the safety of the oil tank..." Xu Li's voice did not fall, only heard a sudden explosion from the fire, startled everyone.

"Mayor Xu, you'd better retreat to the safe area. I'll go to the scene to have a look!" Li Zhen did not care to talk any more and ran to the scene of the explosion. Yu Guangqi carefully stood in front of Xu Li and said, "Mayor Xu, you'd better retreat. It's too dangerous here!"

Xu Li shook his head firmly, pointed to hundreds of firefighters in front of him, and said, "we are still several kilometers away from the explosion site. We all know the danger. Aren't they dangerous? If the fire can not be controlled in the shortest time, the whole Helian will be in a sea of fire, and tens of millions of people in the whole city will be in danger. How can I retreat as mayor! "

Although Yu Guangqi was nervous, Xu Li did not withdraw, and he did not dare to withdraw. He only gritted his teeth and said, "Mayor Xu, you must be careful!"

Just then, a team of more than a dozen cars rushed to the scene. It was the main leaders of the major groups in Helian city who got off the car. Seeing the fire nearby, listening to the huge explosion, we could even feel the earth shaking under our feet! Some of the timid even beat the retreat drum. Can see Xu Li has been standing in the forefront, they dare not flinch, can only harden the scalp to Xu Li.

At this time, the situation was urgent, and Xu Li didn't greet them politely. Instead, he called everyone over and said, "since everyone is here, let's hold an emergency meeting here to study the fire fighting work!" ro!。
