Vantage Pipeline Canada, Inc., is looking to construct and operate a pipeline that would carry 45,000 b/d liquid ethane from a processing plant near Tioga, ND, through Saskatchewan, to a gathering system near Empress, Alberta.
The pipeline would be about 430 miles long; obviously most of it would be on the Canadian side of the border.
Capacity would be expandable to 60,000 b/d (from the initial 45,000 b/d) if the Williston Basin can support the increase. If approved, the project could be started in the first half 2012 and completed by the end of 2012.
Nova Chemicals signed a memorandum of understanding with Hess in July, 2010, to purchase and transport ethane production from the Hess Tioga gas plant via a proposed pipeline to Alberta.
