2025年4月9日，一艘航行在北海海域的集装箱船"维多利亚L"号（Victoria L）发生机舱爆炸并引发火灾。

这艘利比里亚籍船舶由德国赫曼·洛曼航运公司运营，事发时正空载从汉堡驶往鹿特丹港。  

**紧急救援过程**

当地时间下午1时许，荷兰海岸警卫队接到警报，称这艘距斯海弗宁恩海岸约56公里的船舶可能发生爆炸。

目击报告显示，机舱发生爆燃后冒出明火，船上19名船员全部安全。

船员初期尝试自行灭火，但火势在1:30分左右复燃，船长随即请求支援。  

救援力量迅速集结：

- 斯海弗宁恩和荷兰角港派出救生艇  

- 附近钻井平台直升机空降消防小组登船  

- 紧急调遣Multraship Protector号拖轮及两艘溢油应急船  

**火势受控**  

下午3:17分，消防队成功登船协助灭火；至5:17分明火被完全控制。

热成像检测显示无隐蔽火源，海岸警卫队飞机巡航确认已无可见烟雾。

尽管部分媒体称发生二次爆炸，官方未予证实。

现场图片显示船舶尾部倾斜，正进行排水作业（疑为消防注水所致）。  

**事故影响**  

得益于空载状态，事故未引发次生灾害：  

✓ 无人员伤亡报告  

✓ 未发现污染迹象（溢油设备全程待命）  

✓ 船舶预计可自航至鹿特丹  

事故原因待船舶靠港后展开调查。

荷兰海事部门表示，将重点核查机舱设备状况及船员应急操作流程。

An explosion in the engine room of a containership sailing in the North Sea sparked a fire on April 9, 2025.

The vessel, named, Victoria L, was travelling without cargo from Hamburg in Germany to the Port of Rotterdam when the incident occurred.

The 161-meter-long, 25-meter-wide ship is Liberian-flagged and operated by Hermann Lohmann Bereederungen.

At around 1:00 pm local time, the Dutch coastguard received an alert about a possible explosion onboard the vessel, which was approximately 56 kilometers off the coast of Scheveningen, Netherlands.

Flames were seen rising from the engine room, where the blast reportedly took place. There were 19 crew members on board at the time of the incident.

According to the Coast Guard, no injuries were reported.

The crew initially attempted to contain the fire themselves. However, after the fire started again around 1:30 pm, additional assistance was requested by the ship’s captain.

Lifeboats were dispatched from Scheveningen and Hook of Holland. A fire response team was flown to the ship by helicopter from a nearby drilling platform.

Two emergency response tugs, the tug Multraship Protector, and an oil spill response vessel were also sent to assist.

According to a coastguard update around 3:17 pm, the fire crew had boarded the ship and started assisting with extinguishing the blaze. By 5:17 pm, the fire had been brought under control, and responders began returning to the mainland.

The coastguard confirmed the situation was stable, and the ship was expected to continue its journey to Rotterdam under its own power.

One of the coastguard’s aircraft flew over the vessel during the fire and reported that there was little to no visible smoke at the time.

Meanwhile, a Dutch fire brigade team used thermal imaging cameras to investigate the vessel once the fire was extinguished.

While some local media outlets claimed that two explosions occurred onboard the Victoria L, the Dutch coastguard did not confirm this in its official updates.

Images from the scene showed the ship tilted at the back and pumping out water, likely as part of the firefighting operations.

Fortunately, the Victoria L was not carrying cargo during the incident, which reduced the risk of additional hazards. No signs of pollution were reported, though oil spill response equipment remained on standby.

The cause of the explosion on Victoria L is still unclear and investigations may begin once the vessel docks safely in Rotterdam.
