Russian Gas Ruptures

[thør]

Two more gas pipeline ruptures. Maybe it's just bad gas? More likely, shitty workmanship.

Kinda big flame for two "idle" pipelines...wanna bet it was supplying a black market?

 

[thør]

Black market in Russia? In a country where they are lucky to get 85% of the input out the other end of the pipeline? You're joking, eh?

I'm sure the Russian media uses stock pics just like the US media does.

Come now Thor...you are smarter than that. Why would there be an "explosive" amount of gas...enough to keep burning after the explosion...in an idle pipeline? My experience with pipelines not being used is valves get closed and pressure reduced. Now, I suppose it is possible they don't do common sense safety protocols...but a simpler explanaton is that the pipelines were being used. So...what are they being used for? Especially for a product used as financial source for war endeavors? Offsetting income for those on on sanction list? But I suppose it could just be accidental...lol

Are we talking vodka farts here, or something else?

More than possible.

But, gas doesn't explode in a pipeline. There's no oxygen there.

Once again, things go boom in Russia.

An explosion occurred earlier today, 16th May, on the Yamburg - Yelets 1 gas pipeline in the northern part of West Siberia's Khanty-Mansiyskiy Autonomous Okrug. One person died, four with burns were evacuated to the medical centre in Nyagan'. Two of the five injured are in critical condition.

The explosion occurred on the Yamburg - Yelets 1 gas pipeline, about 30 km from the village of Lykhma in Beloyarskiy District, Khanty-Mansiyskiy Autonomous Okrug.

The pipeline has been isolated, fire and repair teams are on scene. The incident occurred in the process of tie-in during pipeline repair work, and after it, a fire started.

Seems like safety protocols that are routine in North America are not in Russia.

And Russian things go boom in Ukraine too. Many, many, many things.

Indeed, at least 4 Russian aircraft appear to have been shot down by "friendly" fire.
