The Coast Guard, Santa Barbara Harbor Patrol, and city and county fire departments responded to the blaze on Platform HABITAT, located about 7.5 nautical miles (13.89 kilometers) off Santa Barbara, a coastal city in Southern California.
"All 26 crew evacuated safely. A 1000 yard safety zone is in effect around the platform," the Coast Guard said on X, Xinhua reported.
Two minor injuries were reported, but neither required higher medical treatment, a US Coast Guard spokesperson told local outlet Santa Barbara News-Press.
