Ok, oil is usually measured in barrels - so this is up to a 1,000 barrel spill. Which is less than a single Eagle ford well will produce a day during it's peak of production. Less than 5 tanker trucks, or a bit more than a single 34,500 gallon DOT-111 tank car (rail).
OH NO!!!!! |

It was because of the GOP and their Bushy McHalliburton Weather machine, wasn't it? Pipeline was weakened by hunters shooting nearby and the lead caused it to corrode externally, while fraking miniquakes caused seals to wear. Big Tobacco was involved some how.

The area where the Keystone pipeline is to run is already covered with 50-80 year old pipelines built to WW2 era standards...
Its okay to have those there. But a new pipeline built to the latest standards, by one of the best pipeline companies in the business is bad..... |

Quote HistoryQuoted: ok doesn't somebody tests these pipes from time to time? Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: That part of the pipeline is 55 years old, according to the Billings Gazette. ok doesn't somebody tests these pipes from time to time?  Every muther fucking 5 fucking years. (DOT regulation) Problem is that if the pipeline isn't kept in a state of turbulant flow, water can and does fall out of the oil. Then it settles on the bottom of the pipe at the 6 o'clock position. Water and b/s = bacteria. Bacteria eats the steel of the pipe. Bingo, we have a Leak. The trick is to catch it before it eats a hole all the way thru.  And lets not rule out 3rd party damages. Those are always fun....Not. I was surprised that there leak detection system caught the leak within 300 barrels. To bad they think they had 900 barrels drained up until they got the block valves shut.  |
