“In our view, natural gas will remain a key component of the global energy mix for the foreseeable future with critical associated infrastructure that requires thoughtful stewardship to ensure assets are operated in a sustainable manner. This is part and parcel of our approach to investing in the energy sector at Stonepeak.”

The 560km pipeline system links Montney and Duvernay production in western Canada to the fractionation and logistics assets of Keyera in Fort Saskatchewan.

Stonepeak said that the system can be expanded to include additional pump stations if the basin needs additional capacity.

The alternative investment company expects the KAPS to provide a competitive transportation alternative while strengthening the western Canadian LNG facilities’ economic viability.
