Wolverine System Overview

Wolverine Pipe Line Company transports liquid petroleum products like gasoline and diesel fuel from refineries and terminals in the Chicago area to terminals and other pipelines in Northwest Indiana and Michigan. Wolverine never owns the products we transport. The products are moved through the pipeline in large batches (5,000 to 200,000 barrels) via pump stations along the pipeline. The products are measured when they enter the system and when they leave the system providing a ticket for each customer of how much product was moved from point to point.

Wolverine’s pipeline system is monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year by qualified Pipeline Controllers in our Operations Control Center. The Controller has the responsibility to manage the system operation, respond to alarms, and remotely shut down the pipeline if necessary.
