Texas Brine reports H2S at sonic well.... Things are ramping up

this is a false alarm people

I am from texas and most of my family is and has worked in the oil industry since it began.

this gas is uncommon but DOES show up from time to time. oil and gas companies are well exquipped to deal with it.

it is dangerous but more people die each year in texas bull riding than sniffing toxic gas....

btw back in the 70 my uncle died smelling that very gas so yes it is dangerous but there is nothing to worry about...

i promise :)

because this is important.

ANYTHING related to that sinkhole is cause for concern.

Being that I work in the oil industry myself, nothing to worry about? I would say in this situation there is a hell of a lot to worry about...

this stuff happens all the time.....i have heard no mention of a sink hole....the oil company did the right thing by evacuating the area.....

after a good scrubbing (burning off harful gas) problem over.

i know it is dangerous because i have family who have died from sour gas.....the company has it under control!!!!

NO DOOM on this one!

omg.

You say you "have heard no mention of a sink hole" . . . and yet you're commenting on this??!!!

Unless you know the entire story, do not comment.

i read the story and did not see a sink hole mention....i just read it all very closly a still have not seen it.

if you want to wait for doom on this one....i dare you to hold your breath

then you need to educate yourself check out any number of threads on the sinkhole.

Shill force one: to: bogey bogey.

commencing diverted fear tactics, anti panic stabilizers in position for ambush...

I read you loud and clear shill force one.

We advice you to resume shilling in the area, I repeat: resume shilling in the area!

We are sending accredited government paid scientists to help you on your mission. Any evidence of panic should be reported immediately to upper shill command. We have got a dangerous subject to white wash here people so remember your primary objectives;

Lie lie deny deny thats our motto!

What sinkhole?

Yep - they would like everyone to ignore/forget the word "sinkhole".

Google Louisiana sinkhole...

Exactly my thoughts to.

Nicely said. The OP has started many threads of a similar nature here and elsewhere, all with the same MO.

Likes to play spy games, build intrigue, fuck with folk's heads.

Regardless of the initial intent behind it, the posters have taken it as their own. We did the same for bezerk, and it pisses him off no end.

Hydrogen sulfide was detected in the air in so9uthern California recently. Remember the smell that was reported? Air testing showed it was hydrogen sulfide. Kuwait City was just locked down with shelter-in-place warnings due to hydrogen sulfide. They said it was from an oil well leak. An incident in Britain involving hydrogen sulfide recently sickened some people. An incident in Australia involving hydrogen sulfide just killed 2 people and injured 19 more.

Hydrogen sulfide is not only an oil industry gas or a volcanic gas. It is also a biochemically-produced gas. Septic workers have to deal with it from time to time. Landfills emit hydrogen sulfide. It is produced by ancient anaerobic bacteria in low-oxygen (hypoxic) and no-oxygen (anoxic) environments.

The 'dead zones' in the oceans have been growing for years. Those are hypoxic/anoxic environments. In Earth's past, when the dead zones get big enough, they emit hydrogen sulfide. This is the likely cause of many extinction events, including the Permian-Triassic extinction event. Well, guess what? They're big enough now. California is downwind of one of the bigger dead zones, the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. The Gulf of Mexico is also an area where dead zones spring up, bigger and bigger, every year. The warmer the waters get - and this past year saw record-setting heat in waters in rivers and in the Gulf and in the ocean - the more hydrogen sulfide they will plume.

Have you noticed combustion vehicles are bursting into flame everywhere? Well, they are. That's from hydrogen sulfide, which is highly flammable. They're bursting into flame in peoples' garages, in carparks, everywhere. Homes and businesses are burning and exploding more now too. Animals are dying everywhere. The birds dropping dead from the sky - they're hitting hydrogen sulfide plumes blowing by. The fish washing ashore dead - it's coming from the Earth's waters, as is to be expected with the growth of the dead zones and the heating of the waters. A nuclear plant on the East Coast had to shut down because the OCEAN WAS TOO WARM. That was a first.

Search for "Alert: Clathrate Gun Is Firing" and read the first link. This is an ancient extinction event. It is not a regional problem. It is not solely because of that sinkhole. It is a planetary problem. Kuwait, a coastal country. Britain, an island nation. Australia, a bigger island nation. California, a coastal state, downwind of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.

The underground bunkers are to provide safety from the fires and explosions and poison gas. The super-rich are building their stuff in the Himalayas to try to stay ABOVE heavier-than-air hydrogen sulfide. All the clues are there if you have eyes to see. All the data and evidence supports this. If you expect the government to tell you flat-out that the end of the world as we know it is upon us, think again.

Yeah but like the shills on this thread are saying. H2s is no big deal. H2s is good for you!

Shit Lots of shit ! did you mean politicians hole or the salt dome one ?

I am confused ?

"An incident in Australia involving hydrogen sulfide just killed 2 people and injured 19 more".

It did? Havent heard anything bout it.

Oops, New Zealand. I get them a little confused; they're both 'down under' to me:

2012-11-10 - HazMat event in Whanganui on the North Island (New Zealand), hydrogen sulfide exposure, 2 killed, 19 injured:
[link to hisz.rsoe.hu]

Blamed on a spill. And the Kuwait one was blamed on a well. And the California incident was blamed on the Salton Sea. And the one in Britain was blamed on a research accident. Tree by tree they will give you an explanation. If you buy it, tree by tree, then you will miss the fact that there is a FOREST of these incidents. Why so many, now? Is it just coincidence that the dead zones are growing and the waters are heating at the same time? Hah, if you believe that then you might as well go back to sleep and wait your turn to die.

Oops, I did make an error though, so I'm glad that came up. It was 2 critically injured, and 19 injured. The two may have died, but I don't know that for sure, so that was an error on my part and I will correct.

Another thing about hydrogen sulfide: it is neurotoxic and can cause brain damage. Remember the face-eater? He walked across a causeway OVER WATER in Florida, downwind of the Gulf of Mexico. On one side he was a normal guy. Along the way his brain was destroyed, he shed his clothes, and by the time he reached the other side he was a ravening lunatic incapable of speech (a sign his speech center had been destroyed, among other things). And they just had 'anti-Zombie' training in California. Now you know why. As the hydrogen sulfide permeates the atmosphere, anyone could become a face-eater at any time. Gotta train law enforcement to deal with that problem. Might need a billion hollow point rounds for that.

Nobody is saying that. You're just as bad as someone downplaying things excessively.

Look, I've been fascinated with everything to do with the sinkhole story and I'm very concerned it could lead to a huge event. But someone pointing out that H2S is encountered at times during oil and gas drilling is not shilling. I'm so fucking sick of folks trotting out the shill label anytime someone says something that doesn't elevate the doom factor.

Obviously this is not good.

[link to en.wikipedia.org]

In 1975, a hydrogen sulfide release in Denver City, located in Yoakum and Gaines counties, Texas, caused the state legislature to focus on the deadly hazards of the gas. State Representative E L Short of Tahoka in Lynn County, took the lead in endorsing an investigation by the Texas Railroad Commission and urged that residents be warned "by knocking on doors if necessary" of the imminent danger stemming from the gas. One may die from the second inhalation of the gas, and a warning itself may be too late

Well, AC, it is amazing that the OP of that thread said the folks could never go back home, MONTHS AGO, when the sinkhole was no bigger than a football field. He also predicted the Hydrogen Sulfide MONTHS AGO. Admittedly there were lots of shills and trolls on the thread, and you were probably one of them.

just like the radiation from fukushima!
breathe deep everyone
it's healthy
no cause for concern at all

honestly, though, if there are really people down there who are blowing this off as nothing and shilling threads then the gene pool isn't going to suffer significantly if they don't leave

no, it's NOT amazing
many of us here were saying the same and we aren't "insiders"
just people with common sense who can see how the big picture plays out
many of us knew with the bp oil spill that we were watching an epic saga unfold that would not stay in the gulf due to the geology of the area
not rocket science
not insider information
not prophecy
just plain old critical thinking skills coming in to play
my god what has public education done to people?

look peeps i did go on and see the sink hole....

my appologies....earlier from reading the post here on glp i did not realize there was a sink hole.

earlier i was down playing the doom because it was my understanding that it was a well that was leaking sour gas.

the sink hole does make things different however i will say (not from expertese) that this issue can be contained once the gas has been scrubbed out. My brother in law deals with with stuff every day in west texas.....i will get his profession assesment over turkey and if this thread is still going if anyone wants me to....i can share his thoughts.

again i am not a shill!!!! so chill!!!!

sorry i do have a profile i just posted above...i just logged in

Encountering H2S during oil drilling is FAR different than the presence of it around the sinkhole.

The point is that no one should be making such definitive comments downplaying an issue this serious . . . especially if they have limited knowledge about it.

The fact that you didn't even know there was a sinkhole would negate your comments.

I suggest you read the extensive amount of info on GLP and elsewhere about the sinkhole, GOM, BP, and New Madrid and then come back here and tell us it's no big deal.

A little off topic here, but I have always wondered... the "DNR" initials, unfortunately those initials also have a fatal meaning, as in "DO NOT RECCESITATE" (spelling police don't attack me)
