I suspect the BTC pipeline engineers probably stuffed the hydrostatic strength test calculations and burst the pipe. I had to regularly fix their incorrect calculations.
@mk that’s false
XOM pipeline company built it
@c6 So was the pipe spec wrong or was it manufactured wrong and QAQC didn’t catch it?
Who signed off on the preservation?
Must have been designed by BTC
@e9 wasn't in service yet.
There was nothing exotic about this pipeline right? Not sour gas or anything like that. How does this happen? Did they not preserve it properly after installation?
