A source from North Gas Company pointed out that the blast was caused by corrosion in an aging segment of the pipeline, sparking a large fire that was later contained by civil defense teams. He affirmed that no casualties or structural damage were reported.
Pumping had been reduced as a precaution before the explosion, and repair teams immediately began inspecting and restoring the affected section, the source added.
Additionally, a North Oil Company official confirmed that technical teams resumed operations after completing the repairs and conducting safety and efficiency tests.
