We are thrilled to have been nominated for a Global Energy Award in the ‘Collaborative Trendsetter’ category for our work on the Plausible Profiles Corrosion Assessment Model or ‘P Square’ for short. This industry disrupting model has been extensively reviewed and is endorsed by global industry experts as a significant improvement to existing models. It has been presented to regulators, international industry organizations and standards committees and welcomed by operators across the world.

On May 31, 1940, more than a year before the U.S. entered World War II, Manufacturers Light and Heat Company purchased nine acres of land along Connoquenessing Creek in Ellwood City, Pa., around 40 miles north of its Pittsburgh headquarters.  The plan was to build a 1,000-hp compressor station to support the expansion of two nearby natural gas pipelines. Market demand in the region was growing fast, and the company needed to keep up. As it turned out, the project couldn’t have come at a better time: By the end of 1945, the station’s horsepower had doubled, and a post-war economic boom was on the horizon.

We're more than a pipeline company — we're a team. Whether in Canada, the U.S. or Mexico, the people who call TransCanada home make contributions that make us better, smarter and more successful every day. We're proud to support people like Juan, from our Leak Detection Engineering Department, within the Liquids Pipelines Business Unit.

After a 16-month Co-op student experience, Meghann Grenier recently returned to Queen’s University in Ontario to complete her mechanical engineering degree. Drawn to TransCanada because the size of the company, she discovered her opportunities were big too.
