At Spectra Energy, we have a strong safety record. Over the past five years, the incident rate for Spectra Energy’s U.S. onshore natural gas pipelines and facilities is roughly half the rate of the industry average.
While we already have a strong safety record and implement rigorous safety practices, our goal is zero incidents. No incident is acceptable. When issues are identified, we work hard to quickly, safely and properly remedy the situation as well as learn from them in order to continuously improve.
According to statistics published by the U.S. Department of Transportation, interstate natural gas transmission pipelines are the safest form of transportation in the United States.
Currently, the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) routinely inspects our pipelines and facilities. PHMSA has the authority to issue enforcement actions if they identify a possible non-compliance or safety concern, either through the inspection process or any other time concerns are identified.
Enforcement actions may also be issued after a pipeline incident. PHMSA has a number of categories for enforcement, including:
For a description of each type of enforcement action and a view of PHMSA's process, please click here.
The USDOT PHMSA inspects our pipelines routinely throughout the year. From 2011 through 2015, Spectra Energy’s natural gas pipelines have received twenty-six (26) enforcement actions from PHMSA that include:
To put these numbers in perspective, during this same period, this is about 2.5% of the total industry enforcement actions initiated by PHMSA.
