It was an oxy-acetylene gas tank kept in the boot of a Mercedes-Benz that exploded at a Petronas petrol station here on Thursday and not the car’s NGV cylinder, a Petronas Dagangan Berhad statement said yesterday.
The statement said the NGV cylinder was found intact.
“Based on our initial investigation and as reported by the customer, the probable source of the explosion was from a gas cylinder used for welding (normally containing oxy-acetylene gas) kept in the boot of the customer’s car, and not the NGV tank as reported,” it said.

The 3.50pm incident occurred after the man in his 30s had just finished refuelling his Mercedes Benz at the petrol station.
Although the car did not catch fire, its rear was damaged.
It was learnt that the driver had been talking on his mobile phone immediately after pumping gas into the cylinder.
The explosion also caused damage to the petrol station and a taxi parked nearby.
