Unnecessary costs incurred in constructing oil pipelines for the Strategic Petroleum Reserve

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6149524
Where audits determined that decisions to accelerate the construction schedule for earlier completion of oil pipelines to fill the Strategic Petroleum Reserve as rapidly as possible resulted in unnecessary cost, the IG recommended that SPRO reevaluate existing construction schedules; ensure that any accelaration will serve a useful purpose; and reach advance agreement with contractors on the additional costs to be incurred.
