Mumbai: JSW Infrastructure Limited on Tuesday informed stock exchanges that one of its storage tanks at the Fujairah Liquid Terminal in the UAE sustained damage after debris from an intercepted drone fell within the facility earlier in the day.
The incident occurred at the company’s terminal comprising 15 tanks. The company said emergency response procedures were immediately activated in line with established safety protocols, and the situation was swiftly contained in coordination with local authorities.
“There were no injuries, and all personnel at the terminal remain safe,” the company said in its regulatory filing under Regulation 30 of SEBI’s Listing Obligations and Disclosure Requirements (LODR) Regulations.
JSW Infrastructure said the remaining 14 tanks at the terminal have been secured and adequate insurance coverage for the facility is already in place.
A detailed technical assessment is currently underway to evaluate the structural impact on the damaged tank and determine the restoration plan, the company added.
The Fujairah Liquid Terminal is strategically located at the Port of Fujairah — one of the world’s key oil storage and bunkering hubs outside the Strait of Hormuz — making it a critical asset for regional energy logistics.
While the company did not disclose the financial impact of the damage, analysts said the swift containment and insurance cover could limit any material operational or earnings disruption, subject to the outcome of the technical evaluation.
JSW Infrastructure said it will provide further updates in due course as per regulatory requirements.
The development comes amid heightened geopolitical tensions in parts of the Middle East, which have raised concerns over energy infrastructure security and supply chain resilience.
