The fire was reported about 5:45 a.m. in an oil tank on the northeast corner of the property at Pasadena Refining Systems. Stephens said air monitoring on the perimeter of the property has not detected any problems offsite. Officials said the Houston Ship Channel was briefly closed as a precaution since the tank is near the channel. The Washburn Tunnel and some streets surrounding the facility that have been closed are expected to reopen soon, Stephens said.
