The terminal project will provide new infrastructure for Western Canadian producers and access to the Keystone pipeline system.
The terminal will be the end point for pipelines delivering bitumen produced in the oil sands and help reduce the US dependence on foreign crude.

The project forms part of the first phase of the Keystone XL project the existing Keystone Pipeline System, a 3,461km pipeline delivering over 500,000 barrels per day of crude oil from Canada to US Midwest markets and Cushing, Oklahoma.
