Officials found the source of an underground oil pipeline leak on Chuea Phloeng Road, Klong Toey, under Rama III overpass. About 4,000 litres of oil are estimated in roughly 20,000 litres of contaminated drain water, and about 1,000 square metres are affected. The Energy Ministry ordered Bangkok Fuel Pipeline and Logistics and BAFS Pipeline Transportation to repair, rehabilitate and pay compensation. Expect digging and traffic disruption in the area. Avoid open flames and smoking nearby, and watch for evacuation notices since two communities are close by.
