Narrative
At 19:15 on 4/09/2012, landowner called oneok pipeline control center in tulsa to report he could see vapors coming from oneok's pipe at the binger jct. #2 location. Field reps were contacted and dispacthed to site. Field rep arrived on site at approximately 19:35 and determined tattletale valve on scraper receiver trap was leaking. Scraper barrel was isolated and blown down. Defective tattletale was replaced. 10/16/2013 - requested by PHMSA david eng to change "apparent cause" to g7 "-incorrect operation". Oneok's incident investigation determined the leak orginated in the threads at, or near the base of the tattletale fitting. It is unknown whether these threads were defective from the factory, damaged during installation of the fitting, or possibly damaged during shipping and installation of the trap to the pipeline during construction. Oneok inspected other traps that were installed with this type fitting during the same time period and found all to be in good working order. 2/19/2014 - the pig trap and tattletale valve were originally installed february of 2012.
