 An oil production ship exploded off the coast of Nigeria in what may well prove the nation’s second major environmental blow in three months.

The Trinity Spirit, a vessel able to store about 2 million barrels of oil, blew up early Wednesday, Shebah Exploration & Production Co., which has the vessel on lease, said in a statement. The ship can process up to 22,000 barrels a day, according to Shebah’s website. 

In early November, a well operated by independent producer Aiteo Eastern E&P Co. blew, spewing oil and gas into the air for weeks before it was capped.
