The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday edition that Bridger Pipeline's proposed project to transport Canadian crude from the U.S.-Canada border to Wyoming would cost about $2-billion (U.S.) and have the capacity to transport more than one million barrels of oil a day, according to new details released by the company.
A Reuters dispatch to The Globe says Bridger first outlined plans in January to the Montana Department of Environmental Quality for a pipeline capable of transporting 550,000 barrels a day of Canadian crude from near the U.S.-Canada border in Phillips county to travel south through eastern Montana before crossing into Wyoming.
However, filings show the proposed 36-inch pipeline would span nearly 1,050 kilometres and ultimately have the capacity to deliver up to 1.13 million b/d to Guernsey, Wyo. Bridger expects the pipeline to initially operate at about 550,000 b/d.
The project, which the developers say would largely follow existing pipeline corridors, would cost about $1.96-billion (U.S.) for the 700 km that will be laid within Montana.
Bridger Pipeline is seen as a potential U.S. partner for Canadian company South Bow, which is working to revive portions of the cancelled Keystone XL oil pipeline.
