Minnesota Incident and Mileage Overview

The report below provides details and incident history for the pipeline systems in the state of Minnesota.

The incidents reported below include: All Incidents reported to PHMSA, Significant Incidents and Serious Incidents for the most recent 10 years. Current Year To Date (YTD) data is also provided. Each year and selected column totals provide links to focused reports showing the causes of the corresponding incidents.

The data sources for this report are the PHMSA Flagged Incident File (1) and several pipeline mileage data sources as described below.

  • Hazardous Liquid - National Pipeline Mapping System (2)
  • Gas Transmission - National Pipeline Mapping System (2)
  • Gas Gathering - Calendar Year 2011 Annual Reports (3)
  • Gas Distribution - Calendar Year 2011 Annual Reports (4)

All mileages are for the year 2011 and are approximate as some data sources may not contain a complete record of state pipeline mileage for the year 2011.

See State Significant Incident Detail Listing for more information about each Significant Incident in Minnesota

Where appropriate, the table columns can be sorted by clicking the corresponding column header.

Notes

  1. The miles of gas distribution service lines (the connection between the distribution line and the end user) are not included in the Gas distribution mileage. The total number of such services is provided.
  2. The costs for incidents prior to 2012 are presented in 2012 dollars. Cost of Gas lost is indexed via the Energy Information Administration, Natural Gas City Gate Prices. All other costs are adjusted via the Bureau of Economic Analysis, Government Printing Office inflation values.
  3. 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. For years prior to 2002, accident report forms did not include a breakdown of public and private costs so property damage for these years is the reported total property damage field in the report.
  4. Net Barrels Lost applies only to Liquid incidents and is the difference between Gross Barrels Spilled and Barrels Recovered.
  5. Gas Distribution incidents where fire/explosion was the primary cause of failure, such as a house fire that subsequently resulted in - but was not caused by - a distribution line failure are excluded from 2004 onward. This exclusion has not been applied in years prior to 2004 due to difficulty in identifying these types of events with the older report formats.
