The Trans Mountain pipeline expansion, a $34 billion project, officially opened on May 1, 2024, after receiving final regulatory approvals. This expansion increases the system's capacity from 300,000 barrels per day to 890,000 barrels per day, allowing crude oil to flow from Strathcona County, Alberta, to Burnaby, British Columbia, and from Edmonton terminal to Westridge Marine terminal. The first cargo is scheduled to load on an Aframax in Vancouver on May 18 for delivery in China. However, logistical constraints at the Port of Vancouver may limit oil exports to approximately half of the anticipated capacity. As of April 30, 2024, the expanded pipeline is 70% full by volume and 69% complete by distance.
Logistical constraints at the Port of Vancouver mean waterborne oil exports from the highly anticipated Trans Mountain pipeline expansion may only be around half what the Canadian government-owned corporation forecast. https://t.co/1Evma9QZad
