It is capable of processing approximately 200 million cubic feet (Mcf) of sour gas per day and 24,000 barrels of raw condensate per day.
The gas plant also includes associated water disposal facilities.
Encana entered an agreement with Keyera to acquire and fund the Pipestone liquids hub and the planned processing facility in April 2018.
Keyera CEO David Smith said: “This project aligns with Keyera’s strategy of building a stronger presence in the liquids-rich Montney development, which is one of the most economic developments in the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin.
