Canadian Energy Company Eyes Rail for Oil
Calgary Alberta - Canadian energy company Gibson announced plans to transport crude oil from Alberta to North American markets as part
of an expansion project.
Gibson Energy said it signed a letter of intent to deliver crude oil using Canadian Pacific's North Main Line for deliveries of crude oil to markets across
North America.
Gibson added it was in the early stages of preparing its terminal near Hardisty, Alberta, for the construction of two storage tanks that can each hold as much
as 400,000 barrels of oil.
"We expect continued growth at our Hardisty Terminal as oil sands and conventional oil production continue to develop at an accelerated pace," Rick
Wise, a senior vice president at Gibson, said in a statement.
The tanks will connect to third-party oil export pipelines from Hardisty.
Storage tank commissioning is expected by 2014.
