Dalian Port's Dirty Mess

Two oil pipelines owned by China National Petroleum Corp. (CNPC) exploded and caught fire on July 16 near Dalian's Xingang Harbor, spilling hundreds of tons of heavy crude oil into the sea. The Port of Dalian is Northeastern China's largest oil and liquefied chemicals storage and distribution base. It holds the country's biggest and most advanced crude oil wharfs, which can handle super-sized tankers of up to 300,000 tons.
