This Weekend, a Spill of About 40,000 Liters of Diesel Fuel Occurred in Southern Chile, on a Small Island Called Guarelo, in Patagonia.

The spill occurred at a terminal on Guarelo Island, in Patagonia, during an operation by the mining company CAP, which is part of one of the largest mining groups in Chile. After receiving the emergency call made by the company itself, the Chilean Navy mobilized to mitigate and control the damage caused by the leak.

Several units were promptly sent to control the affected area and minimize the damage. One of the vessels sent was the “Elicura” and the patrol boat “Marinero Fuentealba.”
