Company: Mo. pipeline that exploded is functioning properly

摘要

The owner of a natural gas pipeline that exploded in central Missouri in March says the line is now functioning properly. Energy Transfer, which owns the Panhandle Eastern natural gas pipeline, said it successfully tested a 15-mile section of the pipeline that exploded in Audrain County north of Mexico. The Mexico Ledger reported that the company tried several tests before the first success on Monday. The explosion extensively damaged a section of state Route 15, which was closed for several days. No one was injured.
