Keystone Pipeline Shut Down After Leak Detected Near Kansas-Nebraska Border

The Keystone Pipeline was shut down Wednesday night after a leak was detected near the Nebraska-Kansas border.

“We have shut down the Keystone Pipeline System and mobilized people and equipment in response to a confirmed release of oil into a creek in Washington County, Kan., approximately 20 miles (32 kilometers) south of Steele City, Neb.,” Calgary-based TC Energy said in a statement.

The pipeline, a key conduit for Canadian oil to the U.S., was shut down around 8 p.m. local time on Wednesday night after alarms were triggered following the detection of a pressure drop in its systems.

The pipeline can transport around 610,000 barrels of oil per day to major refineries across the U.S.- READ MORE
