Why does Shell prohibit trees and permanent structures in its pipeline rights-of-way?
Trees and large shrubs obstruct the view for foot patrols and aerial inspections, which are routine procedures for maintaining the rights-of-way. In order to keep our pipeline operations as safe and reliable as possible, Shell must have unrestricted access to all of its facilities at all times for regular maintenance or during emergencies. A clear right-of-way makes it easier to identify and monitor pipeline facilities, which is necessary to prevent third-party damage.
