Fire On the Mountain!

It seems like most of my "out of town" trips have various twists and turns.  Add several factors like thousands of gallons of Natural Gas Liquids, Natural Gas Feeds, and Propane refrigerant, lots of vessels under high pressure and you have the makings of a Nitrogen Rejection Unit or NRU for short.

Things are going good for bringing this bad boy to life, but unlike Tulsa, Price, Utah and surrounding areas have been extremely dry.  Add some serious lightning strikes and you get something that looks like this:

Luckily the wind has been blowing away from the jobsite, but with the nature of the beast and knowing that fire and extremely volatile substances don't mix, can keep a person a little jumpy.  Thank God for the people fighting the fires that have made our hotel a hopping place that is overflowing and the pilots that fly into the fire beast and drop whatever they drop on the fire.

Hey Tulsa, say a prayer for the folks up this way dealing with the Utah wildfires (440 square miles) and send some of that moisture this way!
