Kilde. gov.uk:
During the routine crew change the opportunity was taken to embark 28 drums of 25 litres of hydraulic oil. On sailing, half the drums were stowed in the hydraulic pump space through which the main engine and port generator exhausts passed. The stacked drums were loosely jammed in place by plywood sheeting.
It was normal practice to leave doors and hatches open throughout the ship to improve ventilation. During the afternoon, smoke was seen to be pouring out of the engine room door and fire was discovered in the hydraulic pump room, above the engine room through the open engine room escape hatch. The crew tackled the fire and believed that they had extinguished it. Unfortunately it re-ignited and quickly spread through the open doors and hatches. It became clear that the fire could not be contained and the crew were safely evacuated by helicopter later that day.
The vessel was eventually taken under tow. The fire damaged pipe work allowing water to enter the vessel and she sank some 36 hours later.
The investigation concluded that the fire started as a result of hydraulic oil leaking onto the hot engine exhausts in the hydraulic pump space and igniting.
