Significant magnitude 6.3 quake hits 144 km southeast of Kokopo, Papua New Guinea in the morning![](https://www.volcanodiscovery.de/uploads/pics/quakemap7132951.jpg) 6.3 quake 14 Oct 8:20 am (GMT +10) The German Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) reported a magnitude 6.3 quake in Papua New Guinea near Kokopo, Kokopo District, East New Britain Province, only 13 minutes ago. The earthquake hit in the morning on Friday, October 14th, 2022, at 8:20 am local time at an intermediate depth of 98 km. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report. A second report was later issued by the citizen-seismograph network of RaspberryShake, which listed it as a magnitude 6.3 earthquake as well. A third agency, the European-Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC), reported the same quake at magnitude 6.2. Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake was probably felt by many people in the area of the epicenter. It should not have caused significant damage, other than objects falling from shelves, broken windows, etc. In Kokopo (pop. 26,300) located 144 km from the epicenter, the quake should have been felt as light shaking. VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available. If you’re in the area, please send us your experience through our reporting mechanism, either online or via our mobile app. This will help us provide more first-hand updates to anyone around the globe who wants to know more about this quake.
