Japan’s Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI) extinguished a fire on an LNG being built at the Nagasaki yard. According to reports, the nearly-completed ship is being inspected for possible damage.
Last October, the P&O cruise ship, Diamond Princess, suffered from a major fire at the same shipyard. MHI continued construction after an examination of the damage.
