Fire on leaked Dalian petrochemical device under control

FIRE on a leaked petrochemical device has been put under control with no casualties reported in Dalian, a coastal city in northeast China's Liaoning Province, company sources said this evening.

The fire was triggered off by leak in a distillation device at the Dalian Petrochemical Company of PetroChina, a leading onshore oil producer of the nation, at around 2:25pm today.

But experts said the fire would continue for a certain period of time as the device still had about 100 metric tons of inflammable matter.

There is no explosive factor surrounding the device on fire, according to company sources.
