Narrative

No actual flames were found, but a hot spot of smoldering coke was found on top of our coke tank. Water was used to put out the smoldering coke, it was later discovered that a steel beam underneath the smoldering coke and some material inside the tank had reached a temperature of 1200 degrees. The fire suppression system was deployed and the fire department called.
