This combination of photos provided by Pius Orofin, a deck operator aboard the Trinity Spirit oil ship, shows rusted areas of the ship moored 15 miles off the coast of Nigeria, in November 2021. The ship, used to store and refine large quantities of oil extracted from the ocean floor, caught fire on Feb. 2, 2022. The three survivors of the Trinity Spirit's explosion - Orofin, Patrick Aganyebi and Lawrence Yorgolo - told the AP of the lack of safety procedures on the ship and of equipment failures.
