North Texas Gas Explosion Kills 3
DALLAS - A gas well explosion in North Texas has killed at least three people and is sending enormous flames and plumes of smoke into the sky The fire broke out at about 3 p.m. at 2101 County Road 1120 in Hood County, south of Fort Worth. At least 10 others are missing. CareFlite dispatched four air ambulance helicopters to the scene. The blaze consists of flames hundreds of feet high and can be seen from at least 30 miles away. Additionally, Sky 4 helicopter pilot Mike Warner said it was so intense he could feel the heat from nearly a mile away. The force of the blast and resulting burn also generated spinning spirals of smoke resembling funnel clouds, often called dust devils. Area residents report hearing a loud explosion or series of explosions. They also said they felt the earth rumble and their homes shake for several minutes. Tracy Mann heard the ruckus and said she initially thought a summer storm was brewing. But the situation quickly turned into something Mann knew was unusual. "Boy that has really lasted a long time for some thunder," Mann said. "All of our windows were shaking." A brushfire sparked by the explosion has already consumed about 200 acres, Warner said.
West Virginia gas blast hurts 7, sparks inferno
70-foot high column of flame blazes at former coal mine
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. - A crew drilling a natural gas well through an abandoned coal mine in West Virginia's Northern Panhandle hit a pocket of methane gas that somehow ignited, triggering an explosion that burned seven workers, a state inspector said Monday. The blast created a column of flame at least 70 feet high, and it will likely burn until a team of well fire experts can reach the scene to extinguish it, said Bill Hendershot, an inspector with the Department of Environmental Protection's Office of Oil and Gas. The fire is in a rural area outside Moundsville and presents no danger to any structures or people, Hendershot said.
BP Well Bore And Casing Integrity May Be Blown, Says Florida’s Sen. Nelson
Oil and gas are leaking from the seabed surrounding the BP Macondo well in the Gulf of Mexico, Senator Bill Nelson of Florida told Andrea Mitchell today on MSNBC. Nelson, one of the most informed and diligent Congressmen on the BP gulf oil spill issue, has received reports of leaks in the well, located in the Mississippi Canyon sector. This is potentially huge and devastating news. If Nelson is correct in that assertion, and he is smart enough to not make such assertions lightly, so I think they must be taken at face value, it means the well casing and well bore are compromised and the gig is up on containment pending a completely effective attempt to seal the well from the bottom via successful “relief wells”. In fact, I have confirmed with Senator Nelson’s office that they are fully aware of the breaking news and significance of what the Senator said to Andrea Mitchell.
Friday:
Pennsylvania well brought under control after natural-gas explosion
Natural gas and polluted drilling water from an out-of-control well shot 75 feet into the air in a remote area of Pennsylvania before crews were able to tame the flow of explosive gas more than half a day later, officials said Friday.
