Why are Pipelines Necessary? • Most people do not realize how often they make use of products that contain oil and natural gas. They can be used for heating and cooling purposes, as a form of heat supply for running stoves, ovens, and clothes dryers. They also help run and power machinery used to make household products we use every day. Even those products consist of or contain oil or gas by-products. And while we strive to create new technology and fuel supplies for automobiles, there are more than 263 million registered passenger vehicles on the road, most of which thrive on gasoline or diesel consumption. Pipelines supply the necessary fuel for these daily activities to function and keep our country moving, both physically and economically.
Moving the Economy • Pipelines and the products they carry help provide economic growth for communities across the country. Not only are people employed to maintain current and existing pipelines, direct and spin-off jobs are created when new pipelines are built or need servicing. For example, a recent study estimated that in crude oil pipelines alone created over 200,000 jobs and over $21.8 billion in Gross Domestic Product. Many of the investments made in new, multi-billion dollar petrochemical facilities or new liquefied natural gas terminals being planned today would be impossible without a steady and reliable supply of feedstocks provided by pipeline infrastructure.
Safety in Pipelines • While you may hear stories in the news, pipeline spills are much rarer than you think. With over 2.4 million miles of pipelines, the number of accidents is less than a fraction of a percent – 99.999 percent of all pipelines deliver their product without incident. Current methods for inspecting and monitoring pipelines use state-of-the-art technology and sophisticated IT systems to protect the integrity of the pipe, people, and the environment. Pipeline operators use high-tech inspection devices and extensive preventative methods to discover issues and guard against future failures. Like any other industrial product or service, robust federal and state safety standards are in place with rigorous requirements and tough penalties in order to that operations are held to a high standard.
Moving without Pipelines • Statistics show that moving gas and oil products by train and truck are far more dangerous than when they are moved by pipelines. • Removing pipelines would add thousands more trucks on our roads and railcars on our rail infrastructure. The fact remains that these modes of transmission are far more dangerous that pipelines. • Cost for everyday items would increase and safety on our roads and rails would be significantly impacted.
