Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--While Canada's Oil & Gas sector has faced some uphill struggles with transportation bottlenecks and Alberta's production curtailments, the sector remains a strong hub of activity. Industrial Info is tracking more than $14 billion in projects in Canada's Production, Pipelines and Terminals industries that are planned to be completed this year.

Pipelines
Among the pipeline projects in the country is one of the biggest projects that Enbridge Incorporated (NYSE:ENB) (Calgary, Alberta) has ever undertaken: the Line 3 replacement program. The $7 billion project is intended to replace the crude oil pipeline between Hardisty, Alberta, and Superior, Wisconsin. The U.S. portion of the project is facing some headwinds, particularly in Minnesota, but Enbridge is wrapping up the Canadian portion. In Saskatchewan, Enbridge will complete the construction of 450 miles of pipeline from the Alberta to the Montana borders. The pipeline will have an initial capacity of 760,000 barrels per day (BBL/d), expandable to 830,000 BBL/d. For more information, see Industrial Info's project report.
Natural gas pipelines also feature in the country's project activity, including TC Energy Corporation's (NYSE:TRP) (Calgary) North Montney Mainline project in British Columbia, which includes 206 kilometers of 42-inch pipeline, two compressor stations and 14 meter stations. The pipeline will transport 150 million cubic feet per day. Surerus Pipeline Incorporated (Fort Saint John, British Columbia) and Banister Pipeline Incorporated (Nisku, Alberta) are the general contractors. For more information, see Industrial Info's project reports on the Saturn and Kahta Creek sections of the project.
Production
The Production Industry leads Terminals and Pipelines in terms of project value, and several projects are expected to wrap up in this sector this year. Among these is Husky Energy Incorporated's (TSX:HSE) (Calgary) bitumen production and processing facilities near Spruce Lake, Saskatchewan. The facilities will use steam-assisted gravity drainage and will have a production capacity of 10,000 BBL/d. Construction began last summer, and the central portion is expected to be completed late this summer, followed by the north section later in the year. WSP Oil and Gas (Calgary) is providing engineering, procurement and construction. For more information, see Industrial Info's project reports on the central and north sections.
In natural gas production, Seven Generations Energy Limited (Calgary) plans to launch a drilling and expansion program of the Nest field in Alberta by drilling 35 new wells to a depth of more than 5,900 meters with a 2,500-meter horizontal leg to supply the Cutbank gas processing plant, which was completed in 2016. The $380 million project is expected to kick off in the second quarter and be completed by yearend. For more information, see Industrial Info's project report.
Enbridge is underway with an expansion of its Tupper West natural gas processing plant near Dawson Creek, British Columbia, which it began late last year. The plant has a current processing capacity of 180 million cubic feet per day, and engineering and construction firm Enerflex Systems Limited (Calgary) is constructing a 200 million-cubic-foot-per-day second train with a natural gas liquids production capacity of 75,000 BBL/d. The project is expected to be completed toward the end of the year. For more information, see Industrial Info's project report.
Terminals
While Terminals fall a distant third behind Production and Pipelines for overall activity, a few major projects are set to be wrapped up in Canada later this year. Chief among these is Pembina Pipeline Corporation's (NYSE:PBA) (Calgary) propane export terminal in Prince Rupert, British Columbia. Construction on the $270 million project kicked off in fourth-quarter 2019 and is expected to be completed this summer. The facility will include two refrigerated tanks capable of holding 33.6 million gallons and a rail yard with liquid propane unloading equipment. The terminal will have a throughput capacity of 25,000 BBL/d of liquid propane, which will be unloaded, chilled and stored in the tanks before being loaded onto export vessels for overseas markets. The propane primarily will be sourced from Pembina's Redwater fractionation complex. For more information, see Industrial Info's project report.
