A 7.9 MAGNITUDE earthquake has struck off Papua New Guinea, but there were no reports of casualties or damage after a potential tsunami did not occur.
The United States Geological Survey downgraded the quake from an initial measurement of magnitude 8.
It struck some 47km west of Arawa on the north coast of Bougainville Island at a depth of 154km, the USGS reported.
An initial tsunami alert for several Pacific islands was wound back to cover just PNG and the neighbouring Solomon Islands and the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center later said the tsunami threat had passed safely for those countries.
