Possible theory - 28 to 30 March (afternoon) digging to place the sewerage pipes. Could have fractured the gas pipe nearby due to pressure during digging.

30 March (evening) - keep equipment because Raya on Monday (31 March). Car video at night showed nothing there.

Between 30 March to 1 April - gas leaking, no worker detect or smell because not working.

1 April - pressure hit critical level, and boom.

For fire to start, you need heat, fuel and oxygen.
Where did the heat come from? Smokers' cig?

This is Malaysia. What do you expect? That they follow rules and heed warning signboards?  laugh.gif

Then who approved this project in the first place? LOL. I really think this is the developer's problem—they should compensate all the victims.

That's for investigators to find out where the heat comes from.

If pipe fractured then how does the pressure increase? Wouldn't it be slowly leaking, which will result in a fire geyser probably, but not an explosion.

The hole looks massive though, those big pipes they dig out is severage pipe?
*
those are RC drain culverts.
Those are storm drains, not sewerage pipes.

sewerage is usually 4" Clay pipe

Based on this, it could be that they are upgrading/connecting monsoon drains for the new shoplots.
Perhaps they dig one side no issue, got over confident with the other side.

Either way, it is normal to dig next to services like TNB/Air Selangor/Gas pipe.
However, precautions is required. cannot simply hentam

Initially it was an explosion, then fire geyser for hours.

What project? The housing? The contractor who caused the explosion shoudl compensate.
And yes, the housing is too near IMO.

gas pipe reserve land mana boleh conduct work, u need petronas gas approval or inspection during construction.

Even LRT/MRT track surrounding also need Prasarana approval, this one confirm need.
*
can, but the work is going to be super tedious, need alot of pilot trenching (manual digging) along the suspected pipe ROW.
Even if they manage to safely exposed pipes, erosion can happen along the excavated slope which can add burden to the pipe, this is the thing happened to my project years back, high voltage cable snapped caused by soil pressure caused by erosion on the side, producing beautiful arc, luckily no one was nearby at the time.
