Baku-APA. A refinery in the U.S. state of Texas on Wednesday caught on fire after explosion, but no injuries were reported, APA reports.

The blast happened at around 12:45 p.m. local time on Wednesday at the NuStar AGE refinery in San Antonio, Texas, according to the local TV channel WOAI.

A type of diesel jet fuel was burning, a spokesperson for the San Antonio Fire Department was quoted as saying.

Workers of the refinery were evacuated from the facility and firefighters had put out the fire Wednesday afternoon.

This is the second fire at the refinery within two years. In May 2010, a truck driver suffered severe burns after a truck being loaded with fuel exploded at the refinery, triggering smaller explosions.
