Trans Mountain Pipeline Hearing Scheduled for 12 Jan

OIL

The oral hearing with Canada’s Energy Regulator on the Trans Mountain pipeline will be held on 12 January at 09:00 MST (11:00 ET), as the Commission has determined it requires further information, the regulator said in a filing.

  • The Commission requested further information on 22 December after the Trans Mountain Corp filed for approval with the regulator on 13 December.
  • The Energy regulator in December denied a request for a pipe diameter change which the firm appealed later in the month.
  • Trans Mountain Corp said previously the pipeline can enter service within one month of mechanical completion, which precedes line fill.
  • The project will nearly triple oil flows on the line to 890kbpd giving extra access for Canadian oil to flow to the US West Coast and Asia.
