The Buncefield Oil Depot fire 2005
Buncefield was an oil storage facility, the fire started at 06:01, Sunday 11 December 2005, the facility was located near the M1 motorway, Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire. The terminal was the fifth largest oil-products storage depot in the United Kingdom, with a capacity of about 60 million imperial gallons (270,000 m3) of fuel.
The first and largest explosion occurred near tank 912, leading to further explosions which eventually overwhelmed 20 large storage tanks.
The cause of the explosion was a vapour cloud of evaporated leaking petrol, measuring 2.4 on Ricter scale.
The flames had been extinguished by the afternoon of 13 December 2005. However, one storage tank reignited that evening, which firefighters left to burn rather than attempting to extinguish it again
