A spill from the Keystone Pipeline near Fort Ransom, North Dakota has caused concerns about the amount of crude oil that may have leaked. The spill was reported after an employee heard a “mechanical bang” and quickly shut down the pipeline, preventing further leakage. The spilled oil was confined to a nearby field and did not impact a stream in the area. Investigation into the spill is ongoing, with the extent of the damage expected to be determined in the coming days. The Keystone Pipeline System, owned by TC Energy, runs through North Dakota carrying oil from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico. The incident highlights concerns about the environmental impact of oil transportation and the need for more stringent safety measures in the industry. Residents and environmental groups are calling for stricter regulations to prevent future incidents from occurring.
