Panipat –Jalandhar LPG Pipeline (PJPL)
Panipat-Jalandhar pipeline is the first cross-country LPG Pipeline of
Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. The 273.62 Km long, 10” dia steel pipe,
externally coated (API 5 LX 52) with designed capacity of 0.70 MMTPA
was laid 1.2 mt below the ground level and was commissioned on 8th
November 2008 for evacuation of LPG from Panipat Refinery. The
pipeline is transporting LPG from Kohand pumping station (dist. Karnal)
to Marketing Bottling Plants at Nabha and Jalandhar (Punjab)
respectively. The underground pipeline was laid as per international
code (API 1104) and crosses through various terrains of Haryana and
Punjab through roads, railways, rivers, canals, lands etc.
The pipeline starts from Kohand (0.00 Km) and travels up to Nabha
(136.30 km) and terminates at Jalandhar (273.62 Km). The entire
pipeline is externally coated and cathodically protected against
corrosion. Mainline valves (16 nos) are provided en-route the pipeline
for isolation of mainline for meeting emergency requirements. For
evacuation of LPG during emergency, we are having Mobile hot flare
unit for flaring of LPG. Security guards are manned at our four numbers
of repeater stations en-route pipeline. DGR guards patrolling are being
done day and night for the entire length of pipeline for prevention
against pilferage / sabotage etc. In-house Officers patrolling are also
conducted on regular basis. Villagers awareness program are regularly
conducted covering dos and don’ts during emergency. Line markers
are also installed. Handouts are also distributed to the villagers about
various safety aspects of LPG during leakage covering emergency
contact numbers of IOCL and nearest police station officials.
2
Community development programs at schools, anganbaadi, hospitals
etc at the Right of Way of pipeline are annually conducted and supports
like drinking water, health related items, sewing machines etc are
distributed for the upliftment of needy and awareness is also given
about safety and security of pipeline. Stations (Kohand, Nabha and
Jalandhar) are provided with various safety measures for handling
emergencies. Regular onsite and offsite mock drills are conducted.
In view of the safety of the LPG pipeline in the mainline due to
sabotage, pilferage, damage due to third party during excavation, it
becomes imperative to update the Disaster Management Plan time to
time with a view to serve as a reference and guide for the various DMP
Co-ordinators and the Civil and State Emergency Response Authorities
in the event of any incident. The role and response of the Civil and
District Authorities is very crucial for controlling and minimizing the
damage to the general populace due to any incident of LPG leakage, so
important telephone numbers of PJPL Stations, Mutual Aid Partners,
District Authorities, Police Station and nearest Fire Brigade enroute
Right of Way from Kohand to Jalandhar have been included.

PURPOSE
This procedure states the requirements and allocates responsibilities for emergency planning at
NRPL, Kohand Pump station.
SCOPE
This procedure applies to all NRPL, Kohand Pump Station employees and contractors working at
Station.
RESPONSIBILITIES
The Station-In-Charge (COM) shall be responsible for implementing these emergency controls
and for ensuring that all personnel are adequately briefed, tasked and trained to respond to an
emergency situation.
DEFINITION
An emergency or disaster is usually caused by an incident situation. An incident can be defined
as any occurrence, which creates a hazard or potential hazard to secure and safe operation of
the pipeline facilities. An immediate and positive response to any incident is essential to
prevent the situation escalating to a major emergency or disaster.
Incident consequences can usually be sub-divided into the following categories:

Safety
Security
Product loss
Product quality
Operational
SAFETY INCIDENT - A safety incident consequence is any situation that:

• Results in or could have resulted in a lost time or injury to personnel.
• Results or could have resulted in an injury to surrounding habitation.
• Results in failure or potential failure of any item of equipment that may create hazard for safe
operation of the pipeline facilities.
• Results in any fire or explosion.
SECURITY INCIDENT - A Security incident consequence is:

• Unauthorized access to the Pipeline facilities
• Bomb or terrorist threat
• Any theft of property on a Pipeline site
• Vandalism or malicious damage to the Pipeline facilities
• Unauthorised photography of the Pipeline facilities.
19
PRODUCT LOSS INCIDENT - A Product loss incident consequence is:
• Any unplanned or uncontrolled escape of LPG from the Pipeline facilities.
• Any actual or suspected pollution of environment by LPG
PRODUCT QUALITY INCIDENT – A product quality incident consequence is:

• Any occurrence, which results or could have resulted in uncontrolled or unplanned mixing of
LPG or contaminants.
• The failure of LPG to meet specifications after passing through the pipeline facilities.
OPERATIONAL INCIDENT – An operational incident consequence is:

• Equipment failure
• Accidental or malicious damage to the pipeline facilities, caused by adverse weather or
natural causes.
• Any loss of facility, which prevents or reduces product movement or requires extraordinary
action to maintain product movement.
PUBLIC EMERGENCY SERVICES

The effective control of an emergency situation may require the co-operation of the public
emergency services and neighboring industries. Emergency plan should therefore be developed
with the co-operation of the Local Police and Fire Services.
Copies of the agreed emergency plans should be passed to the relevant local authorities, along
with route maps, location maps and other appropriate details.
Discussion with the Local Police and Fire Service should determine the appropriate method of
communication in case of emergency. Direct communication to a specific telephone number is
preferable rather than a national emergency telephone number.
LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND PUBLIC SERVICE AUTHORITIES

Local Government and Public Service Authorities may become involved in event of an
emergency. These authorities shall be consulted during the preparation of emergency plan and
appropriate contact telephone numbers should be exchanged and maintained regularly.

LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM GAS (LPG)

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is mainly Propane (C3H8), Butane (C4H10) or a mixture of both
(60% propane and 40% butane). Since LPG has such a simple chemical structure, it is among
the cleanest of any alternative fuels The specification of LPG is governed by IS: 4576:1996.
The various properties of LPG and Hazards are as follows:
LPG is Liquefied petroleum gas and is:
a) Obtained during the process of crude oil at Refinery
b) Colorless and odourless. An odourising agent (Ethyl mercaptan @2ppm) is added at

Refinery between process unit and Horton Sphere/mounted bullet where LPG is
stored at Refinery.
c) Half as heavy as water when in liquid form, it float on water before vaporising
Hazards :
a) LPG is approximately twice as heavy as air when in gas form and will tend to sink to
the lowest possible level and may accumulate in pits, drains etc.
25
b) LPG in liquid form can cause severe cold burns to the skin owing to its rapid
vapourisation.
c) LPG forms flammable mixture with air in concentration between 1.8% and 9.2%
d) LPG is fire and explosion hazard if stored and used incorrectly
e) Vapour/air mixture arising from leakages may be ignited some distance from the
point of escape and the flame can travel back to the source of the leak.
• Density:
LPG in gaseous state is 1.5 to 2.0 times heavier than air. However in liquid state its
density is approximately half that of water and ranges from 0.525 to 0.580 @15 oC.
• Vapor Pressure:
Vapor pressure of LPG is about 8 Kg/Cm2 @ 38 oC. For a pipeline full of LPG, any
exposure to heat will result in rise of pressure by 14 to 15 kg/cm2 for a unit degree rise in
temperature. This clearly explains the hazardous situation that could arise due to rise in
temperature.
• Flammability:
LPG has an explosive range of 1.8% to 9.2% volume of gas in air. This is considerably
narrower than other common gaseous fuel. However auto ignition temperature of LPG is
around 410-580 oC and it does not ignite on its own at normal temperature.
• Combustion:
The combustion reaction of LPG increases the volume of product in addition to the
generation of heat. LPG require up to 50 times its own volume of air for complete
combustion. Upon Combustion it yields 3 to 4 times its own volume of carbon di-oxide,
along with 10900 Kcal heat per Kg.
• Evaporation:
When pressure is released LPG vaporizes rapidly, lowering its surrounding temperature
considerably. This may lead to frost burn when come in contact of LPG. Hence special
care shall be taken to wear Skin Protection clothing such as gloves and goggles, when
there is a possibility of coming in contact with LPG.
26
• Auto refrigeration effect of Vaporization of LPG:
When LPG escapes from an opening, it lowers the surrounding temperature thereby
freezing the water vapor in the atmosphere and making the escaping LPG vapor appear
as a whitish cloud. Even if this cloud disappears, it is not a sign that the inflammable
gas/air mixture is dispersed. Leaking liquid phase LPG will rapidly expand to around 250
times its own volume, thereby creating a greater risk than would occur with a similar size
vapor leakage.
• Solubility of water in LPG:

Because of a very low solubility of LPG in water, the identification of minor leakage in
water is faster and easier. Water present in LPG may cause rust / corrosion and freeze-
the drain valve, excess flow check valve, cylinder valve or regulator. Ice formation may
prevent the complete closure of drain valve, self closing valves, bleeders in LPG lines &
vessels etc. and result in leakage of LPG. Ice crystal formed at the regulator orifice may
lead to plugging of the orifice and thus stopping the flow of LPG. Ice crystal may also
make the linkages in a regulator inoperable.
• Flame propagation:
LPG liquid released forms vapor, which can travel long distance. The LPG vapor can
give violent concussion upon explosion due to faster flame propagation than in case of
hydrogen.
• Odor:
LPG has only very faint smell and consequently it is necessary to add come odorant so
that any escaping gas can be easily detected. Ethyl mercaptan is normally used as
stanching agent for the same. The amount to be added shall be sufficient to allow
detection in atmosphere 1/5 of lower limit of flammability / odor level 2 as per IS: 4576.
• Color:
LPG is colorless both in liquid and vapor phase.
27
• Viscosity:
LPG has low viscosity of around 0.3 CS @ 45 oC and can leak when other petroleum
products cannot. This demands a very high integrity of pressurize system to avoid leakage.
It is also a poor lubricant too.

SPECIFICATION OF MAINLINE PIPES

The line pipes used for mainline are of API 5L X 52 grade with OD of 10.75” X 0.219 wall
thickness. Various other higher thickness pipes used were 0.250”, 0.307”, 0.365” & 0.438”. They
were used primarily for HDD & various other crossings and at locations of high population
density.
MAINLINE ROUTE DETAILS:
• Panipat- Jalandhar LPG pipeline originates from IOCL’s Bottling Plant at Kohand (Panipat),
passes through the LPG Bottling Plant at Nabha en route and terminates at the LPG Bottling
Plant at Jalandhar.
• PJPL is laid in new as well as existing ROW. Around 109 Km. of ROW is new, 90 Km is
common with existing Panipat-Bhatinda (PBPL) ROW and 74 Km. is common with existing
Panipat-Ambala-Jalandhar Pipeline (PAJL) ROW.
• Panipat-Jalandhar LPG pipeline takes off from the LPG Bottling Plant at Kohand and runs in
the north-west direction up to Munak village (Ch.7.077 Km). This stretch of around 7 Km. is
in new and independent ROW.
• At village Munak (Ch.7.077 Km) the pipeline enters the existing ROW of PBPL and runs
parallel to it up to Ch 96.426 Km in village Badshahpur (District Kaithal). In this section of
around 90 Km. length, pipeline crosses two rivers viz. Para and Ghaggar. The pipeline route
also crosses three major Canals i.e. Delhi Parallel branch / Western Yamuna Canal, Hansi
29
Branch Canal & Western Yamuna Canal (Sirsa Branch). The pipeline across the above Canals
was laid using HDD methodology. There are other minor Canals / drains too in this section,
which are crossed by open cut method. There is one national highway, one railway and
three state highway crossings in this section. There are two existing RCP Stations at Ch.
47.575 Km in village Jatheri and at Ch. 87.755 in village Taranwali and four new SV Stations

• The pipeline enters PAJL ROW at Ch. 198.880 Km and runs parallel to it upto terminal point
inside IOCL LPG Bottling Plant in Jalandhar at Ch. 273.62 Km. In this section the pipeline
crosses Sutluj river by HDD method. The pipeline crosses three national highways and three
Railway lines in this section. There are several drains crossing in this section. There is one
existing RCP of PAJPL at Ch. 225.785 Km in village Urapar and five new SV Stations in this
stretch.
• One river (Sutluj) and seven major Canal crossings (including Bhakra Main Canal, Sirhind
Main Canal etc.) along the pipeline route are crossed by HDD method.
• Apart from above, there are six railway and twenty road crossings, where bore cased
crossing technique is adopted.

FIRE PREVENTION
PURPOSE
This procedure states the requirements and allocates responsibilities for the prevention of fire
at NRPL, Kohand Pump station.
SCOPE
This procedure applies to Kohand Pump Station employees and contractors / their personnel
working at the station.
RESPONSIBILITIES
The Station-in-Charge is responsible for implementing these fire prevention controls and for
ensuring that
• Personnel are adequately trained in fire response procedures and in use of first aid, fire
extinguishers and Personal Protective Equipments (PPEs).
• Good liaison is maintained with the local fire station, Police, Hospital and other associated
authorities.
• A site fire plan is available and is regularly updated.
• That the fire fighting equipments are available and are regularly maintained.
FIRE FIGHTING LAYOUT

A Fire Fighting Layout Plan of the station should be displayed at strategic locations in the
station indicating the position of:
• Fire Alarm Points.
• Emergency Shutdown points
• First air & Fire Fighting equipment.
• Fire Hydrant points
CLASSIFICATION OF FIRE
Fire is classified into four categories depending upon the type of combustible material involved.
This classification establishes the type of extinguisher and the appropriate fire fighting
technique to be used.
Fire Material on Fire Extinguisher to be used

Classification
Class A Fires in solid combustible materials, Water or dry chemical agents.
e.g. timber, cloth, paper, straw, dry
grass, rubber and plastic etc.
Note: Some burning plastics produce
large quantities of toxic gas.
76
Class B Fires involving flammable and Dry chemical or carbon dioxide
combustible liquids. (CO2) extinguishers. Never use
water to extinguish a
flammable liquid fire.
Class C Fire involving gas, which is very difficult The best defense is to shut off
to extinguish. the gas. Failing this, dry
chemical or (CO2) is to be used.
Class D Fires in combustible metals e.g. These fires are extinguished
magnesium, aluminum or sodium are with Special dry powder like
the least common types of fire TEC (Ternary Eutectic
Chloride)
Electrical Fires Fire involving electrical equipment. e.g. Dry Chemical or (CO2). Due to
cables, transformers etc. the electrical shock hazard,
non-conducting fire
extinguishing agents must be
used. Never use water on an
electrical fire.
EXTINGUISHING A FIRE
Fuel, oxygen and a source of heat are essential to support a fire. A fire continues, unless one of
these three elements is removed. Fires extinguishing methods are based on removing one or
more of these elements.
Starvation : Limits or removes the fuel supply

Smothering : Limits or eliminates the oxygen supply
Cooling : Reduces the temperature of the burning material below its re-ignition
temperature.
FIRE EXTINGUISHING AGENTS
WATER
Water absorbs heat and reduces the temperature of the burning material. In addition, steam is
generated which smothers the fire by excluding oxygen. Water should be used for Class A fires,
cooling plant and equipment or as a fine spray to protect fire fighting personnel.
Water is the best extinguishing media for dispersion of LPG vapor.
DRY CHEMICAL POWDER

Dry Chemical created as a free flowing fluid, which is rapid in action and kills fire quickly by
interrupting the chemical reaction of the flames. Dry chemical is non – conductive and can be
77
used on electrical fires. Dry Chemical can cause considerable damage to delicate electronic
equipment due to its abrasive nature; therefore it should not be used on computers.
It is used for extinguishing of fire in the pump station.
FOAM
Foam creates a homogenous smothering blanket that floats on the surface of a burning liquid.
It prevents the production of flammable vapour, excludes oxygen from the fire and reduces the
temperature of the fuel. Injecting foam compound into water using foam – making branch or
similar equipment, produces foam.
It is used for oil fire.
CARBON DIOXIDE GAS (CO2 GAS)

CO2 gas extinguishes fire by displacing atmospheric oxygen from fire zone. It is an odourless,
colourless, electrically non-conductive inert gas and therefore can be effectively used to protect
electrical systems. It is also non-corrosive and heavier than air. It is used both as a local
application and a total flooding extinguishing agent.
It is used for electrical fire.
Basics of First Aid

Although every injured person must be sent to hospital without delay, there are always certain
first aid measures that may be administered to prepare the patient for treatment and perhaps
even save his life, before the doctor’s services can be obtained. Some of the common injuries
and rudimentary first aid measures are as follows:
78

5. Place sand bags around the suspected object leaving sufficient clearance. Bomb
blankets, mattresses and cushions of this kind may be used for the impact reduction
purpose. The sand bags should be to sufficient height from the object. Normally, three
to four times height the suspected object is sufficient to reduce the impact. A minimum
of 200 sand bags may be kept at each location for this purpose.
6. If the suspected object is found in an office building or in any room, the windows and
doors shall be opened to minimize the extent of the blast damage, if sufficient time is
available.
7. The evacuated employees should not be permitted to re-enter the building or the
affected area until the bomb squad clears the bomb, declared that the area is safe and
All Clear/Completion Certificate is issued by the Bomb Threat Committee i.e., no re-
entry should be permitted until the Bomb Threat Committee advises to do so.
Following are some more points to remember and practice once the bomb is detected.
a) Suspected object not to be touched / moved unless you are duty bound to do so.
b) Package not to be opened with hand or other materials.
c) Package, object or device not to be punctured.
d) Suspected object not to be submerged in water, as some bombs get activated in
water.
e) Strings or wire attached to the object not to be cut. Some bombs are designed to
get activated once the string or wire is cut.
120
f) Metallic object not to be passed over the package, as some bombs are designed
metal sensitive.
g) Opening of baggage by hand or any other unapproved methods not to be
attempted. Only remote entry technique to be used by trained experts.
h) Flashlight not to be focused directly over the suspected object as some bombs
explodes on exposure to light source.
i) Re-entry to the affected area not to be allowed until the danger is cleared.
DIFFERENT TYPES OF BOMBS/EXPLOSIVE DEVICES:

Generally the bombs can be classified into Service (Military) bombs and home-made Improvised
Explosive Devices (IED). Military bombs have very good finish of a factory made article and bear
markings in the form of letters, figures or monograms on the base or in any other part of the
body. Whereas home-made IED bombs have a crude finish without any marking or may be a
combination of military bomb/explosive fitted with a home-made contraption.
IMPROVISED EXPLOSIVE DEVICE (IED) BOMB CLASSIFICATIONS:

a. Time bombs-which explodes at a pre-set time.
A Time Bomb may have one a time piece or watch acting as a time switching device
in an electrical circuit consisting of a flash light battery with a filament of resistance
(torch light bulb with its glass globe broken).
b. Bomb, which explodes when its position is disturbed.
c. Remote controlled Bomb which is triggered by a remote device like mobile etc.
d. Throw down type bomb, which explodes due to its impact on a surface.
e. Bomb initiated by the action of Sulfuric Acid.
f. Bomb initiated mechanically.
g. Bomb fitted with fuse that has to be lighted up to initiate explosion.
h. Suicide belt or suicide vest worn by a suicide bomber.
i. Vehicle laden with explosives driven by a suicide bomber.
j. Booby Trap These are apparently harmless devices concealing an explosive charge
designed to go off when tempered with. Examples:
i. Cigarette having instead of tobacco filling a charged explosive topped up with
tobacco.
ii. Letter Bomb, Parcel, Packet or Book Bomb.
iii. Pipe Bomb
iv. Briefcase Bomb, etc.

Typical TNT equivalents and minimum safe evacuation distances are given in the following table
as a general guideline. However, the safe evacuation distances may be fixed based on the site
conditions and threat perception.

Annexure M
TYPES OF LPG FIRE DUE TO LPG LEAKAGE
1. Pool Fire
Accidental release of flammable liquids such as LPG can collect in drains, low lying areas leading
to severe consequences. Immediate ignition of this pool of leaked LPG results in Pool Fire. It
burns with a stationary diffusion flame. The radiation from the flames can be very intense near
the fires but falls rapidly beyond 3-5 pool diameters.
2. Fire Ball (BLEVE)
A Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapour Explosion (BLEVE) is an explosion which can be initiated by
the depressurization of a pressure-liquefied gas through a break. This depressurization causes
the fluid near the break to be in a superheated state. BLEVE is among the most fearsome of
accidents that can occur wherever a pressure liquefied gas (PLG) exists.
If a container with a Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) suffers structural failure—be it due to
creep, fatigue, or fire-induced or other forms of accidental jeopardy—it may lead to a sudden
depressurization of the container. As a result, the LPG will suddenly be transformed into a liquid
which is ‘superheated’ in respect of the precipitously lowered pressure. Depending on the
123
nature, quantity and the mechanism of the container failure, such a situation can lead to
instantaneous and violent vaporization of the contents, causing a ‘boiling liquid expanding
vapour explosion’—a BLEVE.
Fire impingement on vessels containing pressure liquefied gases can result in catastrophic
failure of the vessel leading to a Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapour Explosion (BLEVE) e.g.
overheating & rupture of LPG Horton Spheres due to increase of temperature due to adjacent
fire. As LPG is flammable, this can result in the formation of very large fireballs.
In safety assessments where catastrophic vessel failure is identified as a real possibility, the risk
of death from a fireball tends to be higher than that from missiles or blast.
BLEVE- Expanding fireball
124
0.325
The Fire Ball diameter in mtrs. can be calculated using the equation Dmax = 6.48 M , the
0.26
Fire Ball duration in secs= 0.825 M and the Fire Ball centre height in mtrs. Hmax= 0.75
Dmax where M= initial mass of flammable liquid in Kgs.
3. Torch/Jet fire
Leakage of LPG can be in the form of jet and its immediate ignition results in Torch or Jet Fire
e.g. release of LPG from a Safety Release Valve (SRV) on a Vessel and the LPG jet catching fire.
The direction of the flame depends on the direction of the jet and also on the wind speed which
may bend the jet. It also has localized consequences and such fires can be controlled or
contained.
4. Flash Fire
Immediate ignition of dispersed LPG vapours would result in Flash Fires, which have localized
consequences. Combustion products are generated at a rate low enough for expansion to take
place easily without significant overpressure ahead or behind the flame front. The hazard is
therefore only due to thermal effects. Fires can be put out or contained in most cases; there are
few mitigating actions one can take once a vapour cloud gets released.
5. Vapour Cloud Explosion (VCE)
When a large quantity of LPG is released into the atmosphere, clouds of LPG vapours mixed
with air are formed and may sustain propagating flames when ignited. Delayed ignition of
dispersed LPG vapours can result in blast overpressures covering large areas and can cause
damage at considerable distances from the release point. This may lead to extensive loss of life
and property. Blast overpressures depend upon the reactivity and the amount of dispersed LPG
vapours between two explosive limits. These flammable vapours, on delayed ignition may
result in an explosion known as ‘Vapour Cloud Explosion (VCE)’.
It causes intensive heat radiation and explosion overpressure due to an expanding fireball and
fragments of the ruptured tank are propelled away with high energy. LPG tank ruptures &
subsequent vapour cloud explosions caused many of the most catastrophic losses in industry.
LPG is gas at normal atmospheric pressure & temperature. Hence, in case of leak in Pipeline
between two SV/RCP stations, the LPG may escape into the atmosphere and may form ‘Vapour
Cloud (VC)’ and if this VC catches fire then it shall lead to huge fireball/Vapour Cloud Explosion.

The typical minimum building distances from LPG storage locations as per OISD -144, thermal
radiation intensities at various distances due to fire ball, damage to infrastructure & personnel
at different thermal radiation intensities, tolerable intensities and minimum safe evacuation
distances are given in the following tables as a general guideline.
