Magellan Pipeline Company LP Osborn Station - Refined Product Pipeline in Osborn, Missouri

Magellan Pipeline Company LP Osborn Station is a refined product pipeline facility located at 10502 SE Baker Rd, Osborn, Missouri, in DeKalb County. The facility is operational and serves as a key node in the regional pipeline network for transporting refined petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel, and jet fuel. The facility operates under the regulatory framework of the US Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) and Department of Transportation (DOT) 49 CFR Part 195, which governs hazardous liquid pipelines. As a refined product pipeline, it is subject to strict safety standards including cathodic protection, leak detection, and integrity management programs. The facility's NAICS code 486910 indicates it is part of the pipeline transportation of refined petroleum products sector. The Osborn Station plays a role in the distribution of refined products across the Midwest, connecting supply sources to local markets. Its location in rural Missouri reduces immediate population density risks, but proximity to waterways and agricultural areas requires careful environmental monitoring to prevent spills that could impact soil and water resources.

The facility is situated in a rural agricultural area of DeKalb County, Missouri, near the Platte River watershed. Pipeline operations in such settings require robust spill prevention and response plans to protect local farmland and water resources. The transport of refined products poses risks of soil and groundwater contamination in the event of a leak, necessitating regular inspections and cathodic protection systems to mitigate corrosion-related failures.
