Another reminder that new refineries should be built.

That is the former Sunoco refinery. I was there after PES took over and have been in many parts of the campus.

I am not sure where this fire is centered and what exploded, but it does not seem to be the FCC.

Back in the day (way back) in NJ, you’d aim the TV antenna at NY if you wanted news about murders. If you wanted fires - aim it at Philly. (seriously!)

Well, throw in tensions with Iran, there goes under $2.00 gas this summer.

Prayers however for anyone caught up in the inferno.

I’m willing to bet sabotage, in order to drive oil prices up, to make people miserable, to elect Dems.

Aanybody here remember the Bayway refinery explosion back in 1970?

I lived in Springfield, about ten miles away, and thought it happened there.

One of the videos on youtube shows a huge tank launching like a rocket out of the frame. As the lens zooms out to see the fire ball, you can see an enormous splash off to the left. If that had hit a neighborhood...

Look for the gougers to use this as an excuse to jack the price of gas right at the start of summer driving season.

This good get a whole lot worse.
There is an Ammonia Nitrate plant right next to the refinery.
I know this to be a fact, because I know someone who works there.

Been by that place a hundred times, viewing it from I-95. Always seemed odd that a refinery would be so close to Center City.

Any idea what got thrown through the air at the beginning when the explosion just happened?

It looked like a car.

Back in 1972 there was a chemical plant explosion on River Rd in Buffalo that rocked our house many miles away.

I drove by it later and it was a mess.

It’s incredible that no one is missing or injured.

Praise God for that.

Investment bankers took it over and milked it, it was in bankruptcy by the beginning of 2018. Probably a fair amount of deferred maintenance.
