Report Detail:

Look at this mess! Looks like people were painting a tank at a Petroleum company in Brazil and had covered the conservation vent with some plastic. With the PVRV protected with a plastic bag so you can imagine what happened during a product transference.

Then someone pumped material out of the tank. That kind of incident is not new but unfortunately still happens.
