Title: A Distribution Companys Experience With Pipeline Odorized Gas

Abstract: The Philadelphia Electric Company has received pipeline odorized gas for about 30 years from two sources. One supplier odorizes with a 75% TBM formulation and the other with 70% IPM. Neither mercaptan has been found to be sufficiently stable to resist pipeline fading. DMS, added as supplemental odorant at the rate of 0.5 lb/MMCF, has satisfactory overcome the fading problem. The author suggests that distribution companies receiving pipeline odorized gas install recording instruments to monitor the odorant content. request a high DMS blend rather than an all mercaptan odorant. and maintain the old odorizers at their gate stations in event that supplemental odorization is necessary.
