Two MRPL workers died during a tank inspection at the refinery. The incident occurred on a tank platform while checking for a suspected level malfunction.
The employees were found unconscious and could not be revived. A third worker who attempted to rescue them has been hospitalized but is stable.
A high-level committee has been formed for a detailed investigation, and information is being shared with relevant authorities.
A minor hydrogen sulfide gas leakage is believed to have caused the workers' inhalation. The fire and safety team has addressed the leakage, and a case will be registered based on the victims' statements.
