No Cause Yet Determined for TGP Line 1 Explosion in McKean County

A portion of Kinder Morgan’s Tennessee Gas Pipeline (TGP) running through Clermont, PA (in McKean County) exploded and caused a fire in a remote part of the town (wooded area) last Tuesday evening (see Tennesse Gas Pipe Explodes in McKean County – 125 MMcf/d Offline). TGP declared a “force majeure” shutting down the pipeline (actually two pipelines) in the area, knocking some 330 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d) of gas offline. A day later, TGP posted a new notice to say Line 2 was OK and returning to full service. Roughly 125 MMcf/d would remain offline from Line 1 (the pipeline that exploded) in that area until further notice. We have a small update.
