SINGAPORE – A fire broke out at Marina Bay Sands (MBS) on Oct 28, likely due to welding works.
The Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) said it was alerted to the fire at 1 Bayfront Avenue at about 3.40pm.
The fire involved a plastic mat on the 55th floor of MBS Hotel Tower 3, and was extinguished by MBS staff using a hose reel before SCDF’s arrival.
There were no reported injuries.
A spokesperson for MBS said the fire was a small one and occurred in a location not accessible by guests.
“We are working closely with the authorities to investigate this incident,” the spokesperson added.
In footage posted on several social media platforms online, thick, black smoke can be seen billowing from the rooftop of Marina Bay Sands Hotel.
Preliminary findings indicate that the fire had likely originated from welding works conducted in the vicinity, said SCDF.
