Mongstad-2

The Petroleum Safety Authority Norway has initiated an investigation into a gas leak which took place at Mongstad in western Norway.

This escape of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) occurred while modification work was under way. Nobody was injured, but the area was cordoned off and personnel evacuated. The area of the complex where the leak happened was shut down and depressurised.

The PSA has appointed a three-member investigation team, which began its work at Mongstad this morning.

Objectives of the inquiry include establishing the course of events and identifying their direct and underlying causes.
