There's an 'eye of fire' in the ocean when an underwater pipe valve off the Ku Charly platform in the Gulf of Mexico. The platform, operated by Petróleos Mexicano (Pemex), is located off the coast of Ciudad del Carmen in the state of Campeche, Mexico.
The fire was said to have started when fuel was leaked from a control valve of a gas pipeline 260 feet (80 m) underwater.
Three firefighting boats battled the fire, which was reported to be under control.
