Mexico's state energy company Pemex said on Saturday that a fire broke out at one of its platforms in the Gulf of Mexico, adding that it had activated emergency protocols and contained it but that nine workers were injured in the accident.

Pemex said in a statement that two of the workers were its own employees and seven were from other companies, adding that none were severely injured.

The fire broke out late afternoon in a part of the Akal B platform where gas pipelines are located.
