On 27 July 2005, a multi-purpose support (MPS) vessel collided into the Mumbai High North Platform (MHN) and ruptured a riser carrying oil from the undersea wells to the MHN facility, resulting in the break out of a major fire. At that time, the MPS was engaged in a medical evacuation operation in which an injured cook aboard was being transferred to the MHN for medical treatment. The fire was so intense that the MHN was abandoned in accordance with the disaster management plan of offshore operators.
