Updates with details from statement
SINGAPORE, Nov 20 (Reuters) -Brunei LNG said on Wednesday it was managing an "operational upset" at its facility in coastal Belait District, adding it was working towards a full recovery.
The company said in a social media post that the public may observe visible flaring and elevated noise levels from its plant.
"These are controlled and expected outcomes of our operational upset and pose no risk to the surrounding community or environment," it said.
"There are no injuries, asset damage or safety threats to people, the community, or the environment."
Brunei LNG did not specify what caused the operational upset.
The oil and gas producer is 50% owned by the government of Brunei, and the rest is split equally between Japan's Mitsubishi Corp 8058.T and Shell SHEL.L.
Its LNG plant has a capacity of 7.2 million metric tons of liquefied natural gas (LNG) per year.
