IMHO, low probability of Russian involvement, but not outside the realm of possibility, especially if they are confident in their ability to cover their tracks. Even if discovered, it’s a pretty good way for the Russians to assess the nature and severity of political reactions to these kinds of moves. Still, the odds of this being a maintenance snafu are non-trivial, given the caution with which the energy sector is staffing up, because of the financial carnage from just a few years back, when dozens of significant players went bankrupt.

I don’t think there isn’t a crime the FBI won’t do. Corrupt to the bone.

Makes sense. They cross the open border in Texas disguised as illegal immigrants blew it up and then disappeared on a bus to Washington DC.

FBI investigation? May as well just blame the company and get it over with. Any Orc involvement will be swept under Biteme’s rug.

Maybe so, but every time something goes boom in Iran, we all assume Israel and the Mossad were behind it.

Was the explosion simply and accident, probably, it could also be Russian Sabotage.

Yes. FBI would be my first guess.

Of course they did. They also destroyed all sorts of food processing plants, poultry plants and farms. All sorts of stuff

I could easily be persuaded that these type events are the work of the Obama cartel. Disruption of material that is essential to a society is very much a part of the rules for radicals.

Seems like an obvious design flaw if such a thing was possible .

This is a PERFECT EXAMPLE of why ALL SCADA Systems need to be isolated from the .net !!!

Sure it’s convenient for Management and Operators to be able to make a connection and View/Adjust/Control remotely but it’s not worth the risk and I will cite this one explosion and more than likely the reason for this explosion.

I’d be very curious to know of any SCADA system that is connected to the internet.

Is the CIA still operating? I’ve heard they are selling off property in Langley to Tic-Toc.
