The State Accident Investigation Commission has now completed its investigation into the fire at Liseberg's water world Oceana in Gothenburg. The final report will be presented at a press conference in Stockholm on Thursday.

The Accident Investigation Commission had previously stated that the fire likely started when a plastic pipe under one of the water slides was being welded together.

Oceana, which according to Liseberg had cost approximately 1.2 billion kronor to build, caught fire just a few months before the planned inauguration last year.

One person died in the fire, which broke out on February 12.
