January 30, 2014 [OPIS] - Enbridge said on Wednesday that it will construct additional facilities at its Sunday Creek Terminal, located in the Christina Lake area of northern Alberta, to support production growth from the Christina Lake oil sands project operated by Cenovus Energy and jointly owned with ConocoPhillips.
The estimated cost for the expansion is approximately $0.2 billion with a targeted in-service date in the third quarter of 2015.
The expansion includes development of a new site adjacent to the existing terminal, construction of a new 350,000-bbl tank with associated piping, pumps and measurement equipment, as well as civil work for a future tank.
The existing Sunday Creek Terminal was put into service in August 2011.
This expansion furthers Enbridge’s plans to bring incremental volume from projects in the region to the Athabasca Twin pipeline.
