Natural gas has proven to be the fuel of the near future and the requirement for this safe, clean and relatively inexpensive fuel supply has given rise to various techniques of odorizing natural gas. To implement a successful odorization system you must have a working knowledge of the chemical odorant used, and be aware of handling these chemicals so you can be a good neighbor in the community served. As important is the implementation of injection systems which will perform the critical job of odorant injection as well as provide real time information regarding system performance, alarm on failure and reporting of system history of operation. We know that natural gas has no color or smell. For the safety of our homes, offices and schools you must odorize and then monitor those levels with a odorant level testing process that meets the regulatory mandates but more importantly provides the necessary information for maintaining a safe system. Then you must have a plan to include (1) Become familiar and understand the requirements and mandates which deal with the odorization of natural gas. (2) Develop a plan for the odorization process which includes the considerations of the specific odorant used, delivery and handling of the odorant, the injection of odorant into the pipeline, and testing for odor intensity. (3) Within the plan evaluate and implement the requirements for safe and proper odorant delivery, handling accidents, the operational requirements of the odorant injection system application, and proper operation of intensity testing instruments. (4) Include a plan for training of those operators who will work within the odorization process to insure their understanding of the process and the design and operation of the equipment used. (5) Create and maintain a good record keeping system not only for the regulatory requirements, but for to increase the efficiency of the whole process.
