We'll be seeing an uptick in unusual home and business gas explosions and I'm trying to locate specific ZT on the matter.  Below is a refresher for the many gas related news articles.

SOZT

Fault lines, when adjusting, do not just rip apart one day during a dramatic earthquake. They most often creep. Laying gas lines along or across a fault line is asking for an accident of this sort. Fault lines are also seldom so clearly delineated that one can go a mile in this or that direction and avoid their action. Where a slip-slide fault such as the San Andreas will often leave a clear line on the surface, this is only the surface action, not what occurs in the rock layers on either side which can fracture for a long way to either side during any movement. The gas company, or the age of the pipes, will be faulted but in truth the finger should be pointed in many directions. The public, who insist on living at such a scenic spot, is to blame. Officials, who zoned for housing are to blame. The public utility company, for allowing gas lines in the area, is to blame. But this will change nothing, while man continues to live on the San Andreas, even as it awakens. EOZT

SOZT

The danger from radon gas will not be increased as a result of the pole shift. Radon gas is emitted by rock containing uranium, which is degrading. In normal circumstances, where air can circulate, it is disbursed rapidly as is any methane created by decay of organic material. The danger from these gasses comes from confinement - being trapped in a mine, a basement, or beneath the permafrost. The dangers are well known. For methane, it is explosions. An accumulation of methane gas can be identified by the smell of rotten eggs, or as some have described it, dirty socks or cabbage soup. For radon gas the danger is lung cancer, from the continual exposure to the radioactive air. Radon gas is odorless, and cannot be detected except by specialized equipment not in the hands of the average person.

In that the pole shift, or the Earth changes preceding the pole shift, can fracture rock and release pockets of either gas, survivors should be cautious about huddling in bunkers. You are safer out in the open air, or in a trench you have dug that will allow the pole shift winds to pass over you, but nothing to fall on and crush you. The fact that both methane gas and radon gas can accumulate in the bunkers of the elite is one of the reasons we have stated that they have dug their own graves. EOZT

Anyone watching the news, for instance the news on the San Bruno explosion in a distribution line close to the San Andreas Fault line, knows that gas in any form is a danger. Oil and gas refineries explode when rigid piping cracks. Oil or gas wells explode when the ground around them moves. And the gas distribution lines running under cities are no exception. They likewise will explode. Gas lines, whether along the street or within a home, are rigid. In some cases automatic shutoff valves can limit the amount of gas available for an explosion by sensing a drop in pressure, but this is always after the fact. The explosion has already occurred. Utilizing gas on a planet prone to earthquakes was a mistake to begin with, but man never thinks of the consequences when striving for modern conveniences. We have advised turning off the gas at the street, though when the street explodes and your neighbor's homes are on fire you are not likely to escape the holocaust. A better alternative is to live in an area where gas is not available, as in your rural safe location where you will be doing a form of camping while gardening. A campfire at night, for cooking and washing and a bit of friendly light before bed. Nothing explosive. EOZT

SOZT Answer: It is no accident that the New Madrid fault lies under the Mississippi River near Memphis, as rivers form in lowlands created when land pulls apart, separating the rock fingers and weakening support for the land. Thus, the Ohio River bed also is an indication of where rock fingers will pull apart. Two adjustments in Kentucky, a day apart, are not an accident, but an indication of the speed at which the stretch zone is starting to adjust. Rail lines are frequently an early harbinger of such adjustments, as they run long distances, whereas structures within cities, such as tall buildings, take up relatively little space and have a small footprint. Our warning that imploding cities will be experienced, before the hour of the shift, are in this regard. Be warmed, it will not just be your rail lines and gas and water mains that will shatter and be pulled apart during the stretch. The foundations of your tall buildings will likewise be vulnerable.EOZT

Giant fire breaks out in Haifa gas refinery - ISRAEL

Published: 25.12.16 , 10:39

Forty fire fighting crews work to contain and extinguish giant conflagration engulfing a gasoline refinery in Haifa Bay; no injuries reported; fire services say flames not under control as they battle to prevent it from spreading to nearby gas tanks, but manage to reach roof of container and register 'significant relaxation.'

http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4898102,00.html

Forty firefighting crews were called from all over the country to Haifa Bay on Sunday morning after a gasoline refinery burst into flames, threatening to spread throughout the vicinity and sending plumes of smoke into the northern skies.

According to Magen David paramedics, there were no injuries reported immediately after the incident. However, resident of Kiryat Haim and Kiryat Motzkin are being urged to remain inside and close their windows.

Fire services reported that their priority was to contain the giant conflagration in order to prevent its spreading to other gas tanks.

“The incident involves one thousand cubic meters of gasoline. The fire is not under control,” the fire services said.

Shortly after 11:30am, firefighters managed to reach the roof of the burning refinery and pour foam on it from multiple directions. They described the progress as “a significant relaxation.”

However, full control over the fire had still not yet been attained as the flames continued to rage.

Explosion At Chemical Plant; No Injuries Reported

The factory, after the explosion.


Emergency crews were on the scene mid-day Thursday of an explosion at a chemical plant off State Street near the Hamden border in the Cedar Hill neighborhood.

The explosion was reported at around 11:30 a.m. at the former H. Krevit & Co., now known as Chlor-Alkali, at 73 Welton St.

It was originally reported as a hydrogen gas explosion. Then it turned out the explosion stemmed from a natural gas leak in a pipe connected to a heating unit inside the plant had exploded, officials said. Then, later Thursday, officials backtracked again. Now they’re saying they don’t know exactly what happened yet. Representatives of the state fire marshal’s office and Department of Energy and Environmental Protection arrived to help find answers.

The explosion ripped out a back wall. It blew debris onto the Amtrak train tracks, temporarily stopped service to Hartford until crews cleared the wau.

The Chlor-Alkali building was evacuated, and everyone got out safely, according to Fire Chief John Alston Jr.

The explosion also ruptured a container that had sodium bisulfate in it, Alston said. The fire department’s hazmat crew entered the building and determined that the chemical was confined to a pit around a storage container.

The federal Environmental Protection Agency cited the company in 2011 for failing to have a risk management or spill management plan in violation of the Clear Air Act. The company had to pay a $12,626 penalty and buy $36,056 of emergency response equipment for the fire department.so it could deal with chemical emergencies — like the one on Thursday.

5 hurt, 2 critically, in Kan. oil-drilling explosion

The medical conditions of the victims were not immediately available


Associated Press

SHARON SPRINGS, Kan. — Federal workplace safety officials are investigating a western Kansas oil field explosion that injured five workers, two of them critically.

The U.S. Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration said Tuesday the previous day's accident near Sharon Springs in Wallace County happened while workers were performing a drill stem test.

The medical conditions of the victims, who according to OSHA were affiliated with Wichita-based Murfin Drilling Co., were not immediately available Tuesday.

Phone messages that The Associated Press left with Murfin were not immediately returned.

Fire Chief Jay Sharp said crews were working when gas made its way onto the deck floor of a warming hut, which included running heaters.

Sharp said responding firefighters managed to put the fire out quickly.

OSHA said in a statement that Murfin Drilling has been cited by the agency seven times since 2006, including a fatality investigation in which a worker was killed when struck by material on a job site in March 2008 near Great Bend, Kansas.

Murfin's website said the family-owned, 90-year-old company operates oil rigs in the western half of Kansas, southwest Nebraska, eastern Colorado and Oklahoma's Panhandle, with its operations comprising more than 1,300 wells

Compressor station explodes near Clark

Thu 2:50 PM, Dec 01, 2016

CLARK, Wyo. (AP) — There are no injuries after a compressor station near the community of Clark in northwest Wyoming exploded.

Clark firefighter Dave Hoffert says the facility owned by Windsor Energy exploded Tuesday night.

Hoffert says that the building housed the natural-gas-fired boiler to heat crude oil exploded.

He says the only explanation for the explosion is a natural gas leak ignited due to some sort of electrical malfunction.

Although most of the steel siding was blown off and the shed's roof crumpled, the boiler and equipment in the shed remained intact.

Hoffert says damage was relatively minor.

Gas explosion in Sydney's Chinatown injures at least 14

Young child and three other people taken to hospital after gas main blast in food court loading dock in Haymarket


Firefighters at the scene of the explosion in Chinatown, Sydney.

A young child and three other people have been taken to hospital after they were injured in a gas main explosion in Sydney’s Chinatown district.

At least 200 people were evacuated from the five-storey building in Haymarket when the explosion occurred in the loading dock of the building’s food court around 7.40pm on Tuesday.

At least 14 people were treated for lacerations from flying debris and other injuries, a New South Wales Fire and Rescue spokesman said.

“It took a couple of seconds to sink in, at the moment, I was just in shock for a while,” one witness told Nine News.

The fire did not spread throughout the building and was contained by sprinklers, he said.


Crews were working with hazmat units to ensure there was no lingering gas in the building, which was expected to be declared safe later on Tuesday night.

“It was just unreal. Everyone was looking around wondering what would happen.

“I think a few thought it was an explosion so they just sort of took back away and assessed what was going on to understand the next move.”
