[QUOTE]Originally posted by QuestSolver: [QB] September 24, 2005 Distillate leaks at natural gas hub following Hurricane Rita ABBEVILLE, La. (CNN) -- A distillate used in processing natural gas was leaking Saturday night from a rupture at Henry Hub in Louisiana, which connects numerous natural gas pipelines in the region, but state officials said the incident posed no danger to residents. Henry Hub is at the Sabine Pipe Line Henry Gas Processing Plant in Erath, La., part of Vermilion Parish. Vermilion was one of the three parishes worst hit by Hurricane Rita. The officials said the chemical was leaking from a tank into a levee meant to contain such spills. The cause of the leak was being investigated. (Posted 10:15 p.m.) The Times Gas threat fuels energy crisis By Carl Mortished, International Business Editor AMERICA’S energy industry was on tenterhooks yesterday, anticipating a natural gas emergency as Hurricane Rita shifted eastwards towards Port Arthur, Texas, on a trajectory to the heart of America’s gas industry. The slight shift may spare the US refinery industry but will threaten Henry Hub, a gas facility that connects a web of pipelines, linking the Gulf of Mexico gasfields to the Midwest, south east, and New England. Damage to Gulf Coast facilities would increase a price that has already jumped to a record level this week of $14 (£7.90) per million Btu. The US is short of natural gas, its onshore wells are nearly spent and September is a critical month when gas companies fill storage tanks before winter demand. A key gas pipeline serving Henry Hub was shut down yesterday as a precaution, cutting off supplies and also causing Nymex, the commodities exchange, to declare force majeure on gas futures contracts that specify Henry Hub as the delivery point. Two thirds of the Gulf of Mexico’s gas output was shut yesterday, along with 92 per cent of oil production, as platform operators evacuated staff from offshore facilities. Fifteen refineries closed.
