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.
