Oct 21 (Reuters) - Shell SHEL.L said on Monday there was no impact to operations after an oil leak over the weekend from a land-based pipeline at Shell Energy and Chemicals Park Singapore on Bukom island, adding that the leak had been stopped.

"We estimate that approximately 30-40 metric tonnes of slop, which is a mixture of oil and water, was leaked into the sea," the company said in a statement, adding that it was working with all relevant authorities to manage the clean-up effort.

"There is no impact to Bukom operations or supply. The leak has been stopped and we are taking steps to clean up the oil which has spilled," a Shell spokesperson said in an email.

Shell Singapore in August shut one crude distillation unit (CDU) and other facilities at its refinery on Bukom for a scheduled overhaul. The maintenance was expected to end in the first half of October.

The company sold its refinery and petrochemical plants in Singapore to a joint venture company between Indonesia petrochemicals producer Chandra Asri and major trading house Glencore GLEN.L in early May. The transaction is expected to complete by the end of 2024.

Earlier this year, beaches on Singapore's Sentosa island were closed after an oil spill spread from a nearby shipping terminal to the tourist haven south of the city-state.
