Ahhh crap!

I just checked EIA's latest backissue:

The UK had 107 mil bbl of oil stock in August.  Now, after discounting what they sent to us this fall, maybe 2% of their 'on hand' oil products just went up in smoke.  Hemel Hempstead looks to be off the M1, a major north-south route in England.  I cannot imagine there are many depots this large in the country.  

Does anyone know if natural gas was process or stored at this facility?

According to news reports, it was all gasoline at this depot.  They said it was the fifth largest depot in the country.
The BBC is reporting

The Buncefield depot is a major distribution terminal operated by Total and part-owned by Texaco, storing oil, petrol and well as kerosene which supplies airports across the region, including Heathrow and Luton
