Fatal Explosion Rocks Louisiana Natural Gas Pipeline
An explosion at an offshore natural gas pipeline in Louisiana’s Plaquemines Parish has killed a man, the local police reported, adding that the fire was still burning at the site.
The explosion was reported to the Plaquemines Parish police on Saturday evening, with one person reported missing at the site.
“For reasons still under investigation, an explosion and fire occurred while Nichols was believed to be working on the pipeline,” the police said in a Facebook post. “Nichols died as a result, and with the assistance of the Plaquemines Parish Sheriff’s Office, his body was recovered in the area of the incident. No other individuals were injured.”
“The pipelines have been blocked, and one remains on fire, burning the remaining natural gas in the line. Air monitor readings were conducted, and there is no threat to the public. This incident remains under investigation,” the authorities also said.
Original reports suggested that the offshore pipeline was associated with Venture Global, but those reports were in error.
“We are aware of media reports aout an offshore pipeline event that occurred over an hour away from the plaquemines LNG facility and hope for the safety of anyone involved. This pipeline has no affiliation with Plaquemines LNG or any other Venture Global projects, a Venture Global spokesperson told Oilprice on Monday.
The cause of the explosion is still being investigated.
