We take our ownership responsibilities seriously and understand the dangers associated with transportation and processing of natural gas, crude oil and NGL’s. Our team has longstanding experience with similar assets and are committed to optimizing the value of the commodities we control, keeping our neighbors safe and minimizing our overall environmental impact.

WW is committed to meeting industry guidelines and regulations, as directed by the Department of Transportation and state level regulatory agencies. For information regarding the design requirements for Natural Gas Transmission Pipelines, please consult the Department of Transportation’s expectations at https://www.ecfr.gov. For information regarding the ongoing operations and maintenance of Natural Gas Transmission Pipelines, please consult the Pipeline and Hazardous Material Safety Administration at https://www.phmsa.dot.gov/.

The majority of the 2.4 million miles of energy related pipelines within the United States are buried, creating an opportunity for excavation related damage. While all buried pipeline easements should be clearly marked with yellow pipeline markers, these markers do not provide adequate detail for excavation. WW has registered its pipeline assets with the Texas 811 one-call and damage prevention organization and commits to providing accurate support and information to 3rd party excavators to minimize pipeline damage and risk to excavators.
