A fire and explosion occurred early on Friday morning (April 12) at the Petronas Pengerang Integrated Complex oil and gas facility in Johor, The Star reported. 

According to a statement by national oil firm Petronas, the incident took place at 1.25am. An emergency and fire response team was deployed and contained the fire within 30 minutes.

"The situation is under control and all relevant authorities have been informed," it said.

"We will provide additional information in due course, as the investigation is still being carried out."

Comments on social media have suggested that the blast could be felt by residents of nearby residential areas and as far off as Pasir Gudang. 


Spates of incidents happening to our brothers and sisters across the causeway lately.lets all wish them well and nothing major to happen anymore. anything that happens to our closest neighbour could very well affect us very directly.

Yes. Read that a few ppl heard a loud boom at the east side of our island.

 

I did as well. The glass sliding door kinda rattled abit together with a loud boom sound. Then, i thought it was the loudest thunder i heard but when i went to check if there was heavy rain, nothing. About 1.30am thereabouts.

 

Safe ride

Cheers
