2. depends on how competently the pipeline is operated. And the likely answer to that is "not very".

Transcanada does not exactly have a stellar record. Their Keystone phase 1 pipeline sprung 14 leaks in its first two years of operation. Across their network, they average better than 70 spills per year.
