Quick Glance: Trans Mountain Pipeline Expansion Set to Finish by End of May - Alberta Premier
- Line fill of Canada's Trans Mountain crude oil pipeline expansion will be complete by the end of May, with the first waterborne exports from the expanded system starting a month later, according to Alberta Premier Danielle Smith.
- The Canadian government-owned C$30.9 billion pipeline expansion will nearly triple the flow of crude from Alberta to Canada's Pacific Coast to 890,000 barrels per day, but has faced years of delays and cost overruns.
- Line fill is the final step before the expanded pipeline goes into service, offering additional access for Canadian oil to refineries on the U.S. West Coast and in Asia.
- Trans Mountain stated that the service for the pipeline expansion will commence in the second quarter, aligning with Alberta Premier's statements during the CERAWeek energy conference in Houston.
Trans Mountain oil pipeline begins filling ahead of final construction challenges
reuters.com/business/energy/ceraweek-trans-mountain-oil-pipeline-begins-filling-ahead-final-construction-2024-03-20/
Quick Glance: Trans Mountain Pipeline Initiates Oil Filling Before Final Construction Challenges
- Trans Mountain Corp has commenced filling its pipeline expansion with oil as construction of the long-delayed project nears completion. The pipeline expansion will face technical challenges in the next two weeks as it completes the last segment in British Columbia.
- The Canadian government-owned C$34 billion pipeline expansion is set to nearly triple the flow of crude from Alberta to Canada's Pacific Coast to 890,000 barrels per day. The pipeline, expected to be operational in the second quarter, is anticipated to boost Canadian crude prices amid increasing production by producers.
- Technical challenges involve stringing pipeline through hard rock in the final segment. Trans Mountain received approval from the Canada Energy Regulator to use smaller-diameter pipe on this segment.
- In addition to finishing construction, Trans Mountain is in dispute with shippers over tolls to be charged, a situation likely to be resolved by the regulator in early 2025. Suncor Energy reportedly sold one of the first cargoes to China's Sinochem Group.

Paid articlePaidQuick Glance: ‘Oldest Bread in the World’ Unearthed in Turkey
- Archaeologists in Turkey have discovered the world’s oldest-known bread, dating back to 6600 BC.
- A mostly destroyed oven structure was found in an area called 'Mekan 66,' where adjoining mudbrick houses are located, at the archaeological site of Çatalhöyük in the southern Turkish province of Konya.
- Around the oven, archaeologists found wheat, barley, pea seeds, and a palm-sized, round, 'spongy' residue that was 8,600 years old and represented uncooked, fermented bread.
- The organic matter - both wood and bread - was preserved by a thin clay that covered the structure, according to Türkcan.
