TMX Expansion Prepares for First Cargo
OIL
The crude tanker, Dubai Angel, arrived at the Westridge Marine Terminal in Vancouver on Monday, preparing to load the first cargo from the expanded TMX pipeline according to LSEG.
- Canada’s Suncor has chartered the vessel to load ~550kbd of Access Western Blend (AWB) for delivery to China.
- Prior reports suggested it was expected to arrive on the 18th. The TMX expansion began commercial operations at the start of the month but this marks the first loading.
- There are questions around logistical constraints in and around the Port of Vancouver which may limit flows out of the expansion.
