Enbridge and the Alberta government are teaming up to find ways to expand pipeline capacity. Smith singled out the US as a customer she wants to enhance ties with amid looming tariff threats, but those threats may prompt a revival of pipeline projects to Canada's west coast to reduce dependence on the US market.
Enbridge's Northern Gateway pipeline was approved in 2014, but a Liberal Party led by Trudeau came to power in 2015 with sweeping changes for the oil and gas sector, including a tanker ban on the country's Pacific coast, effectively killing the project. The C$7.9bn ($7.3bn) Northern Gateway was not in the interest of local communities, Trudeau said in late 2016, when he officially reversed the previous government's approval. The pipeline would have shipped 525,000 b/d of diluted bitumen westward and 193,000 b/d of imported condensate eastbound to the oil sands region for blending. Construction would have avoided large populations and was seen as the most practical option for getting more Canadian crude to Asia-Pacific. Its northern terminal may not have had the same tanker limitations as TMX faces at Vancouver, and could have seen reduced voyage times.
Enbridge now has added support from the Alberta government by way of crude volumes the province collects as tax from some oil companies in lieu of cash payments. These in-kind barrels would be the first to backstop a major pipeline expansion by Enbridge, giving both the midstream company and other producers something to latch onto to advance a future project. This is a new approach for Alberta, after sacrificing C$1.5bn it paid in a last-ditch effort to keep the doomed 830,000 b/d Keystone XL project to the US alive. Outgoing US president Joe Biden revoked that troubled line's permit in 2021.
Like Keystone XL, Northern Gateway is no more. Reviving such a project would still require significant stakeholder engagement along any route, and face substantially higher construction costs than a decade ago. The C$34bn TMX put into service in May 2024 was originally pegged at C$5.4bn in 2013, even less than Northern Gateway as TMX was the twinning of an existing system. This would be a big hurdle to clear, even if governments were to allay regulatory concerns. But with an unpredictable Trump returning to the White House, the prospect of shipping more Canadian crude west might soon hold a heightened appeal.
