The oil leaked contaminated the frontal waters of the terminal, then it cautiously catch fire.
 
After the start of the drill, the personnel on duty at the Shuidong Maritime Department immediately started the emergency plan and reported it to the command center of Maoming Maritime Bureau in time. The maritime law enforcement personnel carried out emergency operations in two ways. They took the speedboat "15388" all the way to the front of the 30,000-ton wharf for coordinated on-site action coordination, and the other way took the "Sea Patrol 1567" to direct the marine oil spill emergency operations by using oil booms and oil absorbent pads. During the exercise, the fire fighting tugs of the Maoming Petrochemical Port Branch were all in place to participate in the on-site simulation exercise, and the oil spill emergency operations were carried out in an orderly manner according to the exercise plan. Finally it received good training results and greatly improved the ability of fire safety and emergency rescue.
