Someone added information about a strong bad scent product (such as ethanethiol) not being added to the otherwise colorless and odorless gas (so that leaks can be detected by smell before an explosion occurs). It is rarely added to gas when it is in this type of transport pipeline (I couldn't find an example on google). There is also an extensive rebuttal to this over at the Royal Dutch Shell talk page. I feel that the statement that it is not being added is POV because infact it is almost never added to this type of pipeline. --24.137.104.16 02:17, 29 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Add more info

This needs updated with the recent (Oct 06) protests and Garda presence at the construction site. I haven't time to do so myself at the moment. zoney talk 15:58, 10 October 2006 (UTC)


I changed "This method of development is in line with best industry practice for gas fields of this type" which is POV (and reads like a Shell Press Release), to "This method of development is claimed by Shell to be in line with best industry practice for gas fields of this type, however many people are concerned about the helath, safety and environmental impact of the onshore aspects of the scheme."
