Oil tankers collide in Gulf

Two massive oil tankers collided early today, 15 miles off the United Arab Emirates port of Fujairah in the Gulf of Oman, oil sources said.

British Vigilance, an empty Very Large Crude Carrier, and Stena King, an Ultra Large Crude Carrier laden with oil, are still touching each other, and tugs are attempting to separate them, a Dubai-based oil trader said.
