Motiva
Port Neches: Over the next two days, starting on 5/11/2026, Texas Gas has notified us that they will be conducting work to replace their odorant tank along Hwy 366 in front of TPC, by the blue pipes. Natural gas by itself is an odorless gas. The tanks being replaced are filled with an odorant called Mercaptan. The tank holds the odor that is later put into natural gas to give it a distinct smell. While we will still respond to any call for service involving potential gas leaks, our community may notice the odor of this mercaptan when a small amount escapes. The odor itself is not harmful to the public. However, when in doubt, call 911. PNFD will remain vigilant for any adverse impact on our community.
