Dozer Ran over a CNG. Pipeline

Dozer ran over natural gas pipeline that was above ground. Took over an hour to shut it off. OOPS!! This was taken at the camp we lived at in Piceance Creek, Colorado.

@uhhgmail Ya think? When you get back from your ego trip, take a moment to look up the definition of "sarcasm." But thank you ever so much for pointing out the obvious. (that was another example of sarcasm).

@JenkyBoom What a brilliantly clever post kid. Did you think of that all by yourself when you weren't playing video games and posting them on You Tube? If you're really a good little boy, maybe when you grow up your mommy will let you leave the basement and you can do grown up things.

An explosion is almost imminent with a massive leak like this, very fortunate if there isn't one. I was referring to the phenomenon of a diesel engine continuing to run that is near a rupture like this, even after being turned off because of the massive amount of fuel in the air is being sucked into the engine and it would use the natural gas to run. The temperature inside the combustion chamber would have to be almost 1100 F to ignite the natural gas.

@14705cd

it has happened before. while not natural gas i remember a huge gasoline explosion in bellingham, washington caused by a rupture in a 16 inch pipeline. if you are curious google "Olympic Pipe Line accident Bellingham."

definitely not something you want to be close to.

@14705cd Ha ha! beautifully stated.

@originaldriver

Maybe, the air-fuel mixture would have to be just right for that to happen, but I suppose it could. If you wanted that to happen it probably never would. If you didn't want that to happen it would work every time. Murphy's law.
