Safety and Training

Safety is a core value at ExxonMobil Pipeline Company. It is our first priority for our work practices, as well as our contracting and community partners and neighbors. We are committed to continuously improving the safety of our pipelines through best practices and new technologies.

Thankfully, pipelines are the safest way to transport the oil and natural gas that powers our communities—but we still want our team and local partners to be ready for anything, so we sponsor local and regional emergency responder training programs.

Partnering with TEEX

ExxonMobil Pipeline Company is proud to partner with the Texas A&M Engineering Extension Service on a course to train firefighters across the region who may respond to ExxonMobil assets.

ExxonMobil Pipeline Company pays for the course fees, including tuition, some lodging and meals, for class participants. Following successful sessions over the past years, ExxonMobil Pipeline Company is continuing its support with more trainings being offered. Responders will receive valuable knowledge they will need to help protect their communities and families in the event of an industrial type emergency.
