Project Profile
Value: US$497.1 million
Location: Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin
Length: 29 km
Capacity: 355 MMcf/d (Approx.)
Start-up Year: 2019
The Saddle West Expansion Project is located in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. The US$497.1 million project will include 29 kilometres of 36-inch pipeline looping of existing mainlines, the addition of five compressor units at existing station sites and new metering facilities. An application to build and operate the project will be filed with the National Energy Board in the third quarter of 2017. Subject to regulatory approvals, construction of the expansion is expected to start in 2018, and is expected to be in service in 2019. The Saddle West Project will increase total natural gas transportation capacity on the northwest portion of the system by approximately 355 million cubic feet per day (MMcf/d). This project will increase capacity in a critical area of the NOVA Gas system that connects and transports growing supplies of unconventional natural gas.
