A gas leak has sparked a fire at an underground pipeline in central Queensland.
Emergency services have set up an exclusion zone after the blaze began on the Queensland Gas Pipeline in the Central Highlands on Tuesday morning.
No injuries have been reported.
Authorities are investigating the gas leak on the pipeline between Rolleston Compressor Station and Oombabeer, near Bauhinia.
A Resources Safety and Health Queensland spokesperson said they were aware of a fire burning at the leak and an inspector was at the scene.
"The section has been isolated and the incident is under control," they said.
Firefighters arrived and declared an exclusion zone, according to pipeline operators Jemena.
"We are currently working to understand the impact of the incident on our customers and other stakeholders," a Jemena statement said.
"Our current focus is on ensuring the safety of the site, community and our personnel."
The Queensland Gas Pipeline is 672km long, connecting Wallumbilla gas hub, near Roma, to customers in central Queensland.
It supplies gas to Gladstone and Rockhampton, mostly for industrial use.
