Berne Gas Station Being Improved

Continued From Page u
that is now able to deliver guam
titles of natural gas up to 1884
100000 cubic feet daily.
Eight electric motor driven
centrifugal compressors are
utilized at the Berne station to
move natural gas through the
line. The flow of gas through
the station is directed by the
company's dispatcher located in
the General Office in Shreve-
port.
The eleven men who operate
the station are headed by Claude
York, chief operator In addition
to York, there are four operators,
one operator-oiler, one relief
oiler, and a mechanics helper.
The majority of these men live
in modern company owned cot
tages on the station site, while
several live in homes in sur
rounding communities.
Each of the men assigned to
the station has specific duties
to perform to keep the station
operating on its 24-hour year
round schedule. The men work
in three 8-hour shifts. The oper-
ator in charge of the shift re-
ports to the company's dispatch
er each hour and receives in
structions for operating the sta
tion's compressors to move the
proper volume of gas along the
pipeline.
Because increased demand for
natural gas required additional
amounts of gas to be moved
through the line, it was neces-
sary recently to expand the COM
preston facilities at the Berne
station. This work has just been
completed.
Adaptation of centrifugal COM
pressors for use on long distance
natural gas transmission lines
was post war development by
Texas Eastern's engineers. Cen
trifugal compressors used in ma
tural gas operations consist Of a
large, heavy steel case, inside of
which special alloy steel rotor,
slightly larger than a bicycle
wheel, revolves at high speed
and congresses gas.
Inside the rotor are small
vanes which catch the incoming
gas, suck it at very high speeds
through the rotor, and force it,
under new compression, into a
connecting pipe which leads out
into the pipeline. There are
usually several of these COM
pressors or blowers" connected
in series in order that the proper
volumes of gas may be COM
pressed to the needed pressure
Bearings of the blowers are
protected against gas leakage by
an ingenious sealing system also
developed by Texas Eastern
engineers where oil is circulated
around the bearings at a pres
sure higher than that of the gas.
The high grade hydraulic oil
used in this sealing system is
filtered constantly and changed
often.
Along side of the compressor
building is battery of six scrub
berS. These are a series of hori-
zontal steel chambers connected
to the main line that receive
the gas and clean it of any i'm
purities before it enters the
station for compression.
The Bern station is located in
Texas Eastern's operating Divis-
ion II. Headquarters for this
division are at Seymour, Indiana
Communications at the station
are carried on over leased tele-
phone lines, VHF radio, and an
