Alberta Eyes 1M Bbl/Day West Coast Pipeline — Three Routes Under Review

Alberta and the federal government are evaluating three northern B.C. pipeline corridors to unlock 1 million barrels/day of new export capacity to Asia.

A carbon pricing deal between Premier Smith and PM Carney's government is expected within weeks — clearing a key hurdle for upstream investment.

Key Stats: • 1M Barrels/day target capacity • 3 Northern B.C. routes evaluated • 177B Proven Alberta reserves (bbls)

What This Means for Operators: Greater egress certainty = stronger upstream project economics. Operators who lock in surface equipment, storage, and production infrastructure now will be ahead of the build-out curve when shovels go in.
