Narrative
Operating personnel of the receiving party called delek's control center on the morning of august 17, 2016 to alert delek that there was oil in the area around the delivery meter on their facility. Delek operating personnel immediately shut down the pipeline delivering to the meter. A delek operations supervisor called delek's maintenance supervisor to alert him of the incident and maintenance/response personnel were dispatched to the site. Delek supervisors arriving at site met with the receiving party personnel and determined the oil was coming from a broken back pressure control valve on the outlet of the meter. Response personnel arrived on site and located the end of the spill plume, boomed drainage ditch ahead of the oil and deployed vacuum trucks for recovery. Spill was reported once it was determined the source was from delek operated pipe although leak was past point of custody transfer. Broken valve was replaced after alignment with the third party piping was created and the soil was packed so movement of the piping would be more difficult. Additionally, another support was added before pipeline was restarted on august 20, 2016 ensuring there would be no stress on the valve that failed if there was earth movement or settling in the area again.
