Natural gas pipeline explodes near Lake Weatherford
Flames remain into Tuesday morning after an excavation equipment operator laying pipeline for Crosstex Energy Services out of Dallas, accidentally struck an existing propane pipeline owned by ConocoPhillips at approximately 2 p.m. Monday near FM 730 in central Parker County.

A natural gas compressor station exploded near Godley about midnight Saturday resulting in a fire that could be seen from Cleburne, Cleburne Assistant Fire Chief Keith Scarbrough said. People also reported hearing the explosion from miles away, Scarbrough said.
The facility is owned by Crosstex Pipeline and serves as an entry point for an EOG Resources site. The incident occurred near Farm-to-Market Road 4 and County Road 1228. The cause of the explosion remains under investigation, Scarbrough said.

What does an asset sale have to do with safety, which is what I can only guess you are alluding to.

Mismanaged assets in which the company is $200 million in debt indicates a lack of judgment and mismanaged assets. Besides, let's not pretend Crosstex has a perfect safety record.
