TC Energy Corporation announced today that it has approved two new expansion projects totaling $1.3 billion on its wholly-owned natural gas pipeline systems. The $0.9 billion 2023 NGTL Intra-Basin System Expansion will deliver natural gas from the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin (WCSB) to markets within Alberta on the NOVA Gas Transmission Ltd. (NGTL) System, while the US$0.3 billion Alberta XPress project will see the expansion of the ANR Pipeline (ANR) to provide a seamless path for Canadian production to access growing LNG export and other markets along the U.S. Gulf Coast.

The Monongahela National Forest - one of the most biologically diverse national forests in the U.S. – also happens to be along the pathway of the WB XPress natural gas pipeline, which was placed into service last month. Work on the WBX included upgrading and enhancing an existing TransCanada pipeline system that has been safely serving customers for over 60 years. For nearly four years, TransCanada worked closely with various MNF resource specialists, including soil scientists, wildlife biologists, hydrologists, aquatic biologists, and botanists during the planning, permitting and construction phases of the project.

The U.S. Right-of-Way Management Team shared in the October U.S. Natural Gas town hall how they’re using Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) to mitigate the risk of wildfires in the western part of the U.S. Now, they are taking the new practice to the next level!

The decision to expand our Houston Tank Terminal from two to four storage tanks is an example of TC Energy meeting our suppliers’ needs today, while anticipating the crude oil market demands of tomorrow. The two additional tanks that opened for business at our Gulf Coast tank terminal gives TC Energy’s Liquids business unit and our customers greater flexibility to store and move different grades of oil more quickly and efficiently in the Gulf Coast region.
