Underground Gas Storage Assures Winter Supply

When the thermometer tumbles to zero and below next winter, natural gas customers in this area will be using gas that’s really been around. In fact, it will have come all the way from Oklahoma, Texas and the Gulf Coast to Northern Indiana Public Service Company’s receiving stations on the state line at Hammond. From there, NIPSCO will have sent it 80 miles southeast —to Royal Centre —where it will have been pumped into what looks like a layer of solid rock, and kept there until needed. It’s called underground storage—a "fool’s pipe dream” until a few years ago. Modern know-how and equipment, however, have developed it into an efficient, cost-saving reality for the gas industry. Three years ago, NIPSCO engineers and geologists were busy taking a goo 4 look at northern Indiana—below the surface of the earth — seeking geological structures to hold natural gas in storage. Core samples and instruments showed a promising area at Royal Centre, 12 miles northeast of Logansport. The big drill rigs went to work sinking wells which would be used for injection and withdrawal of storage gas. Almost daily for the past 12 months, a huge 660-horsepower compressor has been pumping natural gas, through the wells, deep into the earth at Royal Centre. Today, more than one billion cubic feet of gas rests securely in a layer of porous sandstone 1,350 feet below this Hoosier farmland

stone. Enough pressure is exerted by the compressor to force the gas into the porous rock, push the water into the formation, and

near the Wabash Valley. The big question all this time has been “Will it work?” “For several months we have known that the site of our first underground storage facilities was about as perfect a natural structure as can be found,” relates Dean H. Mitchell, NIPSCO’s chairman and president. “Water in the sandstone layer -*- pushed back by injected gas—forms an excellent seal below and around the edges of the curved formation. Above is a solid, non-porous layer of limestone which forms a 'lid’ to keep the gas from rising. “We knew we had the same kind of geological structure here in northern Indiana as those in which gas is found in its natural state in the Gulf Coast area—except that this one bears water instead of gas. We had proven by this spring that gas could be injected and safely stored at the Royal Centre site. One big—and important — question remained, however. Could the gas be efficiently withdrawn and sent back into our transmission lines to serve NIPS CO customers on the coldest winter days when they need extra gas for space heating? We had risked nearly two million dollars in the project—the answer was important.” NIPSCO’s engineers and geologists recently got that long awaited answer. Natural gas which had been pumped under pressure into the sandstone more than a quarter mile below, was successfully.

brought up through seven injec-tion-withdrawal wells at the site, passed through transmission lines crossing the station site. These pipelines link the Wabash Valley with NIPSCO’s sprawling northwest transmission system. The sandstone storage layer was termed “efficient and economical” when it proved that it could give up gas in large enough quantities—and fast enough—as well as “take” the gas at an effective rate. The successful test withdrawals were made a little less than two years from the day that drilling first started at the Cass county site. Besides the seven wells which are now being used for injection and withdrawal, there are 12 others being used for “observation” and test purposes. “Since the project is progressing so satisfactorily,” said Rollin M. Schahfer, NIPSCO’s vice president of engineering and electric operations,” six of these will soon be converted to injection-with-drawal wells.” “The Boyal Centre underground storage facility is a highly important and valuable addition to our northwest natural gas system,” he added. “It will enable us to store large quantities of gas during the warmer months of the year, for use during our peak day periods in the winter. It’s a very economical method of storage, and is a major step forward in our unceasing effort to provide the people of .northern Indiana with plenty of natural gas the

year 'round, at reasonable prices.” Hie utility officer also reported that another underground storage facility is being developed by NIPSCO at Lake of the Woods, near Plymouth. Some 125 million cubic feet of gas has already been injected into one of 11 wells <- at the Marshall county site, and the company engineers report it is taking gas satisfactorily. At both Royal Centre and Lake of the Woods, existing transmission lines already run through the storage site, and gas can be easily injected or withdrawn from storage. “This will mean a great savings in construction costs,” Schahfer said. He added that NIPSCO is test drilling at other locations thruout its northern Indiana service area in an effort to find more sites for natural gas storage. ‘ i ———— Syracuse Locals Mr. and Mrs. Robert Hinderer and family of Middlebury, Conn., are currently visiting with their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Russell Hinderer of Syracuse and Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Gilliom in Cassopolis, Mich.

Laucks and Lois Xanders were having a lot of fun with “Scrappy” and Katie Graff and Martin Levernier. It will be interesting to see the golf game between Scrappy and Martin.

Many people who are kind in their own homes can become unkind and selfish once they get inside a fast boat. Which brings to a point of information: Some people were wondering about the height of the bridge that goes over to Bob Byler’s Hawaiian Village. It has 8foot clearance, and the other bridge has a little over that. He says that the “pavement lots” are 150’ by 75’, and are reasonably priced. Since this a paid ad, any other information can be obtained straight from the horse’s mouth. Heard a tape by Bishop Sheen, and it impressed me with its thought. In part, and not verbatim: Jealousy can be a tribute paid by mediocrity to genius; the jealous person then admits the superiority of his rival, but since he cannot reach that level himself, he drags the other down to his. To set ourselves up as worthy of judging others is already to see ourselves as their superiors, to be guilty of the sin of pride, for we cannot gossip without either over-

rating ourselves or underrating our neighbors, and frequently we do both. We instinctively feel that the abuse of our neighbors is wrong, and we show it by the words we use when we are about to cut somebody’s throat. For they are words of self-apology: “Os course, we mustn’t judge anyone, BUT . . . ,” or “I always prefer not to judge anyone, BUT . . . ,” These words presage the knife ... and the effect on him who has wielded it is always psychological darkness. We are not wise enough nor innocent enough to judge each other. The only decision we rightly make about one who is doing wrong is to admit it and say, “We will leave him to God.” That’s all this week, folks. — D. D. I read an article in a medical publication, sponsored by the A. M. A., which exploded a favorite belief. Dr. Covey wrote that eating carrots will not help you see better, even if you eat them by the carload. He said carrots, among other vegetables, are an excellent source of pro-vitamin A which helps produce the chemical reaction involved in seeing, but that this vitamin A is needed in such small amounts that it is almost impossible, with even a subsistence level diet to deprive one of it to the point where his power of sight is weakened. More than you resily need will, of course, not make you see better. Clayton Staley, on Syracuse Lake, has a red-winged blackbird, named “Buddy,” which comes when called. The bird then hops up on his lap and eats bread from his hand. Mr. Staley says that he is a little cautious of strangers, but will walk around the ground within a few feet scolding and begging for spmething to eat. The bird has been returning every year for about four years. Gene Hattersley on Morrison Island, has an interesting little building at the rear of his lot. It is papered with thousands of dollars of worthless stocks which he had in the crash of ’29.

Joe and Pat Todd gave us an example of the “Twist”—the dance that causes the older ones to sit on the sidelines and watch, while regretfully holding their back.
