    • Yellowhead Mainline will be a significant driver of lower-carbon economic growth in Alberta and expand the capacity and enhance the efficiency of Alberta's natural gas network. 

      As Alberta’s energy demand continues to grow, the Yellowhead Mainline will play a crucial role in reinforcing Alberta’s energy infrastructure and enhancing access to reliable and lower-emitting energy sources for industrial and residential customers. 

      The project consists of building approximately 200 kilometres of high-pressure natural gas pipeline and related control and compression facilities that will run from Peers, Alberta, to the Fort Saskatchewan area. The pipeline is expected to have the capability to deliver up to 1,000 terajoules (or 1 billion cubic feet) per day of incremental natural gas delivery capacity.

    The project will create approximately 2,000 jobs during construction and enable more than $20 billion of investment in Alberta by our customers, including the DOW Fort Saskatchewan Path2Zero project.

    We have been delivering safe, reliable and affordable natural gas for more than 100 years and we are excited to embark on this new landmark infrastructure project which will ensure a prosperous future for all Albertans for generations to come.
