GPA Midstream congratulates recipients of midstream industry awards for their outstanding safety records in 2024.
“Safety is a top consideration for midstream companies,” said Sarah Miller, President and CEO of GPA Midstream. “These annual awards are a reflection of the value GPA Midstream members place on people, communities, and the environment, and their commitment to continuous improvement."
GPA Midstream honors top safety performances in two categories — one comprised of companies based in the U.S. and the other of international companies — with up to four divisions each. Division classifications are based on company size, which is determined by total operational work hours ranging from less than 50,000 to more than one million.
