I’m so excited one of these gas lines is only about 20 ft. from my living room

How many of these does it make in the last month or so?

Methinks these neighborhood explosions are not accidents.

Probably a fairly large trunk line under decent pressure.

Does anyone know if this was at the actual Interstate crossing?

Wonder if the constant vibration from the interstate above got to it?

I have a good friend north of there who has a large pipeline that runs across his property. He gets free gas to his house as part of an old contract to have some sort of valve on his place.

Always seemed like a great deal, but after seeing these pics I’m not so sure about that ...

Here is a follow up on the pipeline explosion for your reference.

NTSB releases preliminary report on West Virginia pipeline rupture

The rupture occurred in a pipe that was a part of a pipeline segment installed in 1967 with an original, nominal wall thickness of 0.281 inches. The 20-foot ejected section of the pipe was fractured in the base metal along the entire longitudinal direction along the bottom of the pipe. The outside surface of the pipe was heavily corroded near the midpoint and along the longitudinal fracture. The thinned area was approximately 6 feet in the longitudinal direction and 2 feet in the circumferential direction. The lowest wall thickness measured was 0.078 inches.

I will find out sooner or later if this was a location of a pulled casing. The corrosion occurred contrary to established best practices, regulation and corrosion prevention technologies.
