  1. That RBN Energy article is very interesting. So I take it the diluent Canada needs is a different kind of thing from the oil produced in the Bakken. And they would need it from the get-go to even get flowing on a pipeline, not mixed in once their "material" gets partway down the pipeline to ND. Do I have this correct?

    1. That's exactly how I see it.

      1. They can use Bakken oil as a diluent, but it's not their preferred diluent.

      2. They need to add the diluent at the source -- where it goes into the pipeline in Alberta.

      3. If they use Bakken as a diluent, they would pipe Bakken to Alberta, and add it there.

      At least that's how I see it. I could be wrong (which wouldn't surprise me) but I don't see them adding Bakken oil as a diluent where the ND/MT pipe joins the Keystone at Baker.

      If I am seeing this incorrectly, hopefully someone will write to correct me.
