The fire was caused by the ignition of hydrocarbon vapor released during the off-loading of basic sediment and water (BS&W) from the two vacuum trucks into an open area collection pit. BS&W is an oil/gas exploration and production (E&P) waste liquid. The BS&W was contaminated with highly flammable condensate. During the off-loading, vapor off-gassed from the BS&W and was drawn into the air intakes of the vacuum trucks' running diesel engines. As a result, the engines began to race and backfire.
A number of these fires have involved flammable medications in the form of prepping agents (alcohol and alcohol-containing iodophors), eye lubricants, ointments, and wound dressings (tincture of benzoin and collodion). These are just some examples of how flammable some products can be. According to the material safety data sheet for ethyl chloride, it is heavier than air, and the vapors may hug the ground, making distant ignition and flashback possible. Even static electricity may ignite it.
