Alyeska’s Environmental Program

Our mission is to provide high quality customer service, environmental direction and leadership so that Alyeska Pipeline Service Company complies with environmental laws and regulations and proactively minimizes environmental impacts.

Alyeska’s environmental program is infused in everything we do. From the operations technician to the catering staff, from the vehicle mechanic to construction and maintenance crews, all employees and contractors of Alyeska Pipeline Service Company are trained and routinely made aware of Alyeska’s commitment to regulatory compliance and environmental protection. This awareness is maintained through the delivery of formal classes, informal discussions of requirements at shift change meetings, posting of informational signs, and hands-on interaction between environmental professionals and field personnel.

Alyeska has environmental regulatory experts based in Anchorage and Fairbanks. Alyeska’s Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) acquire permits for pipeline and terminal operations, maintenance and new projects, negotiate permit conditions with environmental agencies, and coordinate their area-specific program for Alyeska.

Alyeska also has environmental coordinators that are physically based on the pipeline and at the Valdez Marine Terminal. Alyeska’s Environmental Coordinators (ECs) assist the Operations, Maintenance, Projects, and the various field-based contract groups to understand and comply with Alyeska’s environmental philosophy, requirements, and expectations.
