is it possible for a pipe to rupture at one place and the fire to travel down the pipeline for a great distance, I hope that every body got out of the danger zone safety
Apparently these gas mains are under pretty high pressure and aren't required to be inspected, so they don't get inspected... I think I heard that only 7% of the gas mains get inspected for corrosion? I'm sure it's pretty difficult since these things are buried, but when people are calling about smelling gas you'd think they should do something.
PG&E = the new BP.
Good question Ray. I don't know if there would be enough oxygen in the pipe to allow it to travel but I sure wouldn't want to be standing at at the end of the pipe
I wasn't quite up to date with the news when I posted this. Sounds kind of callous. Wasn't intended to be.
