Two workers have died at the Mazeikiu Nafta oil refinery in Lithuania after a vacuum tank exploded.
Refinery spokesman Andrius Stasiulaitis says the blast had a limited scope and has not affected overall operations at the plant, which is owned by Poland's PKN Orlen and is the largest enterprise in Lithuania in terms of revenues and taxes paid.
Stasiulaitis said Friday that the explosion killed two workers ages 48 and 51, and that an investigation has been launched.
A major fire broke at the refinery in 2007, causing some €38 million in damages and a significant decline in output.
