A clean-up is under way after a significant oil spill at Dublin Port.
The incident took place at an operational berth on the east of the site at 8.05pm on Monday.
The fuel oil leak was stopped at source, and the spill is contained within a confined area, according to a statement from Dublin Port.
The port’s shipping channel is largely unaffected and containment booms have been deployed, with specialist contractors on site to manage and recover the material.
The port’s response teams are actively assessing and managing the situation in co-ordination with relevant authorities, including the Irish Coast Guard.
Port customers, drivers and passengers are advised to follow advice from terminal operators.
The Department of Transport has been contacted for comment.
