Rover Pipeline on schedule despite spill
Thursday, May 18, 2017
The completion of the Rover Pipeline isn’t expected to be delayed by a federal order to stop new drilling to install the pipe, according to Oil and Gas Investor.
Energy Transfer Partners LP spilled more than two million gallons of fluid in Ohio wetlands last month during construction of the pipeline, which prompted regulators to halt drilling in certain areas. The drilling ban will stay in place until the U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission allows the company to start again.
The ban doesn’t prevent Energy Transfer from finishing other drilling activities that have already started or other non-drilling construction.
