Nov 21 (Reuters) - BP BP.L said on Friday that its Olympic Pipeline crew excavated over 100 feet (0.03 km) of pipeline following a leak earlier this month near Everett, Washington, but have not identified the source of the leak so far.
Washington Governor Bob Ferguson on Wednesday declared an emergency as a result of a Olympic Pipeline shutdown, which has disrupted jet fuel supply to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.
"Crews have safely excavated over 100 feet of pipeline but have not yet identified the source of the release. Excavation and inspection of the pipeline will continue overnight," a company spokesperson said in an emailed statement, adding that the pipeline remains shut at this time.
