 More on Vapor Cloud Explosions and Fires

Safety Board, which is the federal organization that investigates chemical
accidents at facilities in the United States, has recently identified two types
of accidents that are occurring somewhat frequently resulting in death.   That
organization is recommending changes in industry standards and also regulations
to minimize accidents, but first responders also need to recognize the
situations.    Both kinds of accidents involve natural gas or hydrocarbon
vapors which contact an ignition source resulting in explosion and fire.  One
class of accident occurs when industry or power companies purge and vent  lines
or equipment with natural gas before placing into service.   The other accident
occurs when unauthorized people (usually teenagers) hangout at unsecured oil
and gas production sites.
