Pipeline spills 176,000 gallons of crude into creek about 150 miles from Dakota Access protest camp
North Dakota officials estimate more than 176,000 gallons of crude oil leaked from the Belle Fourche Pipeline into the Ash Coulee Creek. State environmental scientist Bill Suess says a landowner discovered the spill on Dec. 5 near the city of Belfield, which is roughly 150 miles from the epicenter of the Dakota Access pipeline protest camps.


The leak was contained within hours of the its discovery, Wendy Owen, a spokeswoman for Casper, Wyoming-based True Cos., which operates the Belle Fourche pipeline, told CNBC.
It's not yet clear why electronic monitoring equipment didn't detect the leak, Owen told the Asssociated Press.

 Quoting: R. Wordsworth


"The 6-inch steel Belle Fourche pipeline is mostly underground but was built above ground where it crosses Ash Coulee Creek, Suess said. Owen said the pipeline was built in the 1980s and is used to gather oil from nearby oil wells to a collection point."

Easy access for sabotage.

Too bad it was not 60' underground inside another larger pipe like what will be done near Standing Rock.

There will be an expensive root cause analysis investigation to determine what happened. This will be conducted third pay although the client might also perform a parallel internal investigation.

If it's sabotage they'll determine it as such. That comes under the "other column".

They'll look at standard failures:

Mechanical failure
Corrosion Failure
Lightning strike causing grounding induced pitting or holes type failure.
Other: Sabotage, car/boat accident, "acts of God".

Then they'll use a whole bunch of sciencey stuff like metallurgical tests, corrosion test, electron-microscopic surface observations, material grain structure observations, work hardening and more...

The results of the science tests will either support or refute the above failures... this leads to the top most probable cause proved both by supporting evidence and other causes being refuted.

Speculate all you want here, "It was the Rothschilds! It was the Indians! It was the BLM! It was the other BLM! No it was the Boogeyman!!!'

Be rest assured that the science will come out. And it has to because the CSB, OSHA and probably EPA will demand such and investigation.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 3029007


I did a stint as a "pig tracker". What a tracker does is insert a radioactive instrument "a pig" into a pipe and the oil flow pushes the pig to it's destination. The pig measures pipe wall thickness and the welds. Some pipes run from Canada to Cushing. Anyway, many stateside pipes are almost 100 years old and still moving product. The old pipes have thin walls and the welds were done by hand. The fragility of these pipes means a pig tracking team will scan these pipes every couple of months but the pipe can still fail due to pressure or fatigue. The sabotage theory is good to wank to but the reality is mechanical systems wear out and break down.
