Incident and Mileage Data

ENBRIDGE ENERGY, LIMITED PARTNERSHIP

(Operator ID:11169 - CURRENTLY ACTIVE OPID)

Main Operator Report Page - Incidents and Mileage - Federal Inspection and Enforcement Data - More Pipeline Operators

The reports below provide mileage data based on this operator's latest submissions to PHMSA, as well as their incident data for the most recent 5-year period.

The data sources for the mileages in this report are the National Pipeline Mapping System(1) for Hazardous Liquid and Gas Transmission pipelines for both mileages and States of operation, and the current year Gas Transmission Annual Report for Gas Gathering (2) mileages. All mileages are for in-service pipelines and reflect data submitted to PHMSA by this operator.

The data sources for the incidents in this report are the PHMSA Filtered Incident Files. Where appropriate, the table columns can be sorted by clicking the corresponding column header.

Important Notice: Currently, these reports are only available for hazardous liquid, gas transmission, and gas gathering operators, and do NOT, at this time, include system mileage or incidents for any gas distribution operator. These reports have recently been modified to show ALL incidents that have been reported to PHMSA by an operator during the time period shown. We will continue to improve these reports and we welcome your feedback.

Both onshore and offshore miles are included in these reports.

Notes

  1. For years 2002 and later, property damage is estimated as the sum of all public and private costs reported in the 30-day incident report. All costs shown are as reported by the operator at the time of the incident.
  2. Net Barrels Lost applies only to Liquid incidents and is the difference between Gross Barrels Spilled and Barrels Recovered.
