Concerns Linger Over a Secretive Texas Company That Owns the Largest Share of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline 

by David Hasemyer, Inside Climate News (November 22, 2021) – Carl Weimer, special projects advisor for the Pipeline Safety Trust, a non-profit watchdog organization, says it’s a “head scratcher” to try to predict how Hilcorp will perform now that it is the principal owner of TAPS because it has no track record of administering oil pipelines of significant size.“Since they have so few miles of pipelines, there isn’t much data to help us understand their safety record with (oil) pipelines,” he said. “Hopefully they inherited, and are paying good attention to, experienced personnel on TAPS.”
