An explosion at the Petro Star refinery in Valdez earlier this week led to the release of 5,000 gallons of fuel that was either burned up or contained, according to a final state report about the incident.

A column of smoke rises from a fiery explosion at the Petro Star refinery in Valdez on Monday.

The fire was extinguished within an hour and no one was hurt, authorities said. The cause of the fire remained under investigation as of Thursday. The Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation said no impacts to wildlife were seen and no sheens were observed on surrounding water. “The tanker truck released approximately 5000 gallons of ultra-low sulfur diesel as a result of the fire,” said the report, which was issued Wednesday. “An unknown amount of fire suppressant foam and water mixture used to put out fire was released onto a gravel surface.”
