The BP Amoco Chemicals Green Lake, Texas, pipeline project was, at the time of its construction in May 1999, the world's longest directionally drilled pipeline. Moreover, designing and building it required protecting a variety of sensitive environments surrounding the lines and ensuring containment of hazardous product within the pipelines. Stringent requirements imposed by BP Amoco Chemicals exceeded even those of the US EPA (Environmental Protection Agency), DOT (Departement of Transportation), and the US Army Corps of Engineers. Project participants engineered and used advanced technological safeguards coupled with construction methods to address environmental sensivity. Namely, construction employed the world's longest directionally drilled pipeline crossing and a sophisticated leak-detection system, all to protect the marine environment through which the line passes.
