Keystone's Cushing Extension Begins Deliveries To Oklahoma

摘要

On Feb. 8, the second phase of TransCanada's US$12 billion Keystone Pipeline system began delivering crude to Cushing, OK. The second phase is a 298-mile extension from Steele City, NE to Cushing and an increase in Keystone's nominal capacity to 591,000 bpd, of which 530,000 bpd is contracted. "This is a significant development for TransCanada as the Keystone Pipeline will play an important role in linking a secure and growing supply of Canadian crude oil with America's largest refining markets, greatly improving North American energy security," says Russ Girling, TransCanada president and CEO.
