Narrative
At 14:40 on june 16th, 2024 operations personnel conducting daily facility inspections at dallas terminal found a couple gallons of jet fuel released from an air eliminator on a filter vessel. The pipeline was immediately shut down, the affected section was isolated and cleanup activities were initiated. During cleanup, additional jet fuel was discovered and the trrc was notified. Further investigation found a crack on the bottom of the air eliminator likely due to continuous vibration during movements.
