Waupisoo Pipeline: Growing with CSR
Pipe stockpiled near Edmonton awaits deployment to the Waupisoo Pipeline. We source our pipe locally where possible and purchase only high-quality steel pipe with tough, resilient coatings to prevent future corrosion.
We are constantly working with our customers to ensure the right pipeline capacity is in place at the right time for the right markets. Today we have over $8 billion of liquids pipeline projects moving forward and the Waupisoo Pipeline is one of them – a vital piece of new infrastructure that will link Alberta oil sands producers to their upgraders and refineries at Edmonton. From there crude oil and refined products are shipped to meet North America’s energy needs. At 175 billion barrels, Alberta’s oil sands represent one of the world’s largest proven oil reserves, second only to Saudi Arabia. An additional two million barrels per day of production is expected from the oil sands by 2015.
A project the size and scope of the Waupisoo Pipeline has significant economic, environmental and social impacts on thousands of people, including communities and landowners living along the right-of-way, partners, contractors, and customers. Whether we are in the planning, construction or operating phase of any given project, throughout the process our employees are guided by our corporate values and corporate social responsibility policies and practices that are designed to ensure we operate with integrity, honesty and transparency, minimize our environmental footprint, and communicate openly and honestly with everyone with whom we interact.
