Working Conditions Aboard the Seaways-Titan

On July 6, 2026, at approximately 12:42 p.m., a fire erupted aboard the tanker 'Hari Gyan' in Baja California Sur, prompting immediate activation of emergency protocols by maritime authorities in La Paz Bay. The blaze ignited at the stern of the vessel, as observed by personnel from REMAFE during their routine surveillance operations. In response to the incident, authorities quickly deployed the firefighting tug 'Tláloc' and maintained an ongoing dialogue with the ship's captain while implementing preventive measures. Preliminary investigations suggest that the fire was caused during a crew maneuver, specifically due to friction that ignited one of the mooring lines. Fortunately, the captain confirmed that the fire was not linked to hydrocarbons, effectively reducing the risk of an explosion from the ship's cargo. By the time the tug 'Tláloc' arrived, the crew had successfully managed to extinguish the fire, rendering additional firefighting resources unnecessary. Following this, both REMAFE and the Federal Attorney for Environmental Protection (PROFEPA) conducted an inspection in the surrounding waters and found no signs of marine pollution or petroleum spills connected to the incident. While the emergency concluded without injuries or environmental harm, the Port Authority has announced an investigation into the 'Hari Gyan' and launched administrative proceedings to uncover the incident's cause and assess the safety compliance of the vessel.
