裕廊西煤气厂火患酿一死 伤者一出院一已清醒

裕廊西地区惹兰布罗路的一家液化煤气厂于上周五(21日)发生连环爆炸,导致一死二伤,其中一名伤者日前已经完成手术,目前已能够和他人交谈,且神志清醒,另一名伤者也已经出院休养了。

新加坡外籍劳工中心指,上述意外中的死伤者皆为中国籍男子。出院伤者已经回到由雇主安排的住宿地点去休养,相信很快会完全康复。

该中心主席杨木光也指出,死者的家属目前正在申请办签证,而该中心目前协助提交报告、索偿、安排悼念仪式和运送遗体回国等事宜。

该起液化煤气厂连环爆炸案于21日傍晚5时许发生,民防部队赶抵现场时火势已经非常猛烈,现场频频传出爆炸声,现场浓烟滚滚,就连裕廊东部和西部、德曼花园等地区的民众都能看到。

火势凶猛发生连环爆炸

这间隶属优联能源集团旗下Summit Gas Systems的液化煤气工厂火患,民防部接获消息后,派出了120名消防员、35辆救火车,动用了7支高压水枪和一架无人驾驶灭火机展开救火工作,在耗费了两个半小时后才成功将火势控制住。

据悉,疑因有工人在为25公斤煤气桶充气时,煤气桶不知何故着火,而周围都是煤气桶,因此火势迅速蔓延开来。

由于火势凶猛,当局将现场周边200米内的路段封锁,并且派遣警员到现场维持秩序,确保没有人进入小路。民防部危险物质控制专业人员(HazMat)也到现场提供支援。

一名43岁的男子不幸在事件中身亡,另外有两名分别29岁和45岁的男子受伤,他们皆在清醒的情况下被送到新加坡医院就医。

民防部队第四分区司令卓英杰上校在现场受访时指出,这是当局至今面对的最大宗液化煤气厂火患,涉及了大小不一的煤气桶,牵涉范围有两个足球场大。

他指出,当局展开灭火工作,更要确保设施内两个60公吨大的液化煤气缸不会被殃及。失火肇因尚在调查中。

预计导致余万元亏损

优联能源集团执行董事张学彬受访时表示,一共有约1万4000个液化煤气桶被烧毁,估计将造成逾1000万元的亏损。

他指出,受影响的40余名员工已经在隔日(22日),到位于文礼惹兰柏沙瓦的另一家工厂上班,液化煤气的供应不会受到影响。

他强调,会对死者家属和伤者作出赔偿,并重新检讨工地安全,确保不会有安全疏漏,导致历史重演。

他对事件的发生感到遗憾,且目前正在商榷具体的赔偿金,希望员工们能够尽快走出阴霾,重整旗鼓。

由于事发现场位于工业区,事发单位隔邻时新加坡石油公司(SPC)的油厂和油站,该公司发言人表示,虽然火势没有扩散到该公司油厂,但是他们当时已疏散所有员工。

将向股东讲解营运影响

火患事故导致液化煤气桶服务中断,优联能源集团目前正在评估有关的影响。

该集团今早(24日)在一份报告中指出,将会向股东讲解事故所带引起,在营运或财务方面的重大影响。

该公司主要出售桶装液化煤气,并向我国家庭住户销售相关的配件。该集团也同时生产和销售压缩煤气和柴油。
