According to the investigation team responsible for the particularly serious accident of the Sinopec Donghuang oil pipeline leakage and explosion on November 22 in Qingdao, the direct cause of the accident was corrosion and thinning of the pipeline at the junction with the drainage ditch, which led to pipe rupture and the leakage of crude oil into the ditch. The responders used hydraulic breakers to make holes in the cover of the ditch, generating sparks that triggered an explosion of oil and gas inside the ditch.
Don’t you know the design life of the pipeline? No maintenance was carried out? On-site construction, without blast testing?
It was last year, right? It takes a year before there’s a result?
Very profound lessons! If you’ve taken care of all these aspects you mentioned, how can anything go wrong? Where to draw lessons from?
Many years ago, a subcontractor made an opening in the piping on the ship; he got it wrong and chose the adjacent compartment. That compartment had just had its paint applied and was still in the process of being insulated! After making a hole in Mars, it exploded right away.
Too many accidents could actually be avoided; it’s always people who kill other people
To put it simply, the punishment mechanism is insufficient. It reminds me of the compensation agreements from before; the amounts paid varied from place to place, with those with rural household registrations receiving less compensation than those with urban household registrations.
