A ship owned by the China National Offshore Oil Corporation is reportedly ablaze in Jakarta Bay, with four people listed as critically injured. Another is missing. All the victims are Indonesian.
The CNOOC vessel, the Lentera Bangsa, caught fire at 9 a.m. on Friday as it anchored off the Thousand islands. It is not thought to be an oil tanker.
A police officer was quoted as saying four people suffered severe burns.
The fire, which started in the engine room, was still burning at 11:30 a.m.
The crew is understood to total more than 150 seamen.
The officer said communication with the ship was proving difficult and the remoteness of the vessel made fighting the fire tricky.
A Transportation Ministry spokesman said no oil had leaked from the vessel.
