Flaring took place over several days at a bulk propane plant after an unidentified third-party carrier, who is used to haul propane to the site, inadvertently offloaded anhydrous ammonia into propane storage tanks at the site. “It was a driver error on their end, and ultimately there was anhydrous that was in the storage tank in the truck that was delivered into ours”. There have been no injuries associated with this incident. As part of an emergency response plan, a team emptied the tank by flaring. The process was expected to take 48 to 60 hours. “Ultimately, we want our facility back up and running to deliver propane to our customers as soon as possible, and the valves and stuff on our vessel are brass, and they’re made for propane and not for anhydrous”. “So we do need to get the anhydrous out of the tank sooner than later, so we chose to do it immediately.” CLICK HERE for more
