Oil And Gas CEOs Jointly Declare Action On Climate Change CEOs of 10 global oil and gas companies make collaborative declaration on climate change: • Call for an effective climate change agreement at COP21.

• Strengthen actions and investments to contribute to reducing the GHG intensity of the global energy mix.

• Support the implementation of clear stable policy frameworks consistent with a 2°C future; these will help our companies to take informed decisions and make effective and sustainable contributions to addressing climate change.

• Collaborate in a number of areas such as efficiency, natural gas, R&D and CCS. • Report regularly and consistently on their progress.

• OGCI report outlines member companies’ work to catalyze practical, meaningful and

technology-enabled actions to address climate change.

The chief executive officers of 10 of the world’s largest oil and gas companies - which together provide almost a fifth of all oil and gas production and supply nearly 10% of the world’s energy - today declared their collective support for an effective climate change agreement to be reached at next month’s 21st session of the United Nations (UN) Conference of Parties to the UN Framework on Climate Change (COP21).

In their milestone declaration, the CEOs of the 10 companies that currently make up the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative (OGCI) – BG Group, BP, Eni, Pemex, Reliance Industries, Repsol, Saudi Aramco, Shell, Statoil and Total – confirmed that they recognise the general ambition to limit global average temperature rise

to 2 degrees centigrade and that the existing trend of the world’s net global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is not consistent with this ambition.

The OGCI member companies have taken significant actions to reduce their GHG footprint, with combined GHG emissions from their operations reducing by around 20% over the past 10 years.

In their declaration the 10 CEOs said: “Our shared ambition is for a 2°C future. It is a challenge for the whole of society. We are committed to playing our part. Over the coming years we will collectively strengthen our actions and investments to contribute to reducing the GHG intensity of the global energy mix. Our companies will collaborate in a number of areas, with the aim of going beyond the sum of our individual efforts.”

(Helge Lund, BG Group; Bob Dudley, BP; Claudio

Descalzi, Eni; Emilio Lozoya, Pemex; Mukesh Ambani, Reliance Industries; Josu Jon Imaz, Repsol; Ben van Beurden, Royal Dutch Shell; Amin Nasser, Saudi Aramco; Eldar Sætre, Statoil; and Patrick Pouyanné, Total.)

The OGCI also today launched its collaborative report - ‘More energy, lower emissions’ – highlighting practical actions taken by member companies to improve GHG emissions management and work towards improving climate change impacts in the longer term.

These actions include significant investments in natural gas, carbon capture and storage, and renewable energy, as well as low-GHG research and development.

Together the declaration and report set out key areas where the OGCI companies will focus their collaboration, including: Efficiency: optimising efficiency of their own operations; improving the end-use efficiency of their fuels and other products; and working with manufacturers and consumers to improve the efficiency of road vehicles.

• Natural gas: contributing to increasing the share

December 2015

of gas in the global energy mix, ensuring it results in significantly lower lifecycle emissions than other fossil fuels for power generation; eliminating ‘routine’ flaring and reducing methane emissions from their operations.

• Long-term solutions: investing in R&D and innovation to reduce GHG emissions; participating in partnerships to progress carbon capture and storage; contributing to increasing the share of renewables in the global energy mix.

• Energy access: developing projects to provide

people with access to energy in partnership with local and national authorities and other stakeholders.

• Partnerships and multistakeholder initiatives: seeking opportunities to accelerate climate change solutions by working collectively or individually in industry and other initiatives.

The OGCI is a CEO-led, voluntary, oil and gas industry initiative that aims to catalyze practical action on climate change through best practice sharing and collaboration. b Source: BP

Kenworth Introduces T880 40-Inch Sleeper Kenworth announced the introduction of a new 40-inch sleeper for the Kenworth T880 today at the American Trucking Associations (ATA) Management Conference and Exhibition.

Kenworth’s 40-inch sleeper is designed for vocational applications that use straight trucks, such as petroleum haulers or the tow industry, and for tractors hauling flatbeds, lowboys or other trailers where length and weight may come into play.

“The Kenworth T880 is all about providing vocational fleets and truck operators with the right truck for the right job.

The 40-inch sleeper is a perfect match for vocational applications where drivers need a small sleeper with a compact, yet comfortable sleeping environment and optimal storage,” said Jason Skoog, Kenworth assistant general manager for

pleNet, and Kenworth TruckTech+ remote diagnostic antennas.

To help cover body builder equipment for all vocational applications, the T880 40-inch sleeper was designed with a height – from the bottom of the frame rails to the sleeper rooftop – that is nearly 17 inches shorter than the T880’s 52-inch and 76-inch mid-roof sleepers.

The T880 now offers vocational customers three excellent sleepers to best meet their needs and applications.

In 2016, the T880 is available with the recently announced PACCAR MX11 engine rated from 355 to 430-hp and from 1,250 to 1,550 lb-ft of torque.

The flagship Kenworth T880 Vocational Truck with the PACCAR MX-13 engine was selected as the 2015 ATD Truck of the Year by a panel of commercial trucking journalists and a professional driver.

The T880 was ranked high for exceptional handling, power, torque and outstanding visibility from the driver’s seat. b

sales and marketing.

The 40-inch sleeper, which saves 260 pounds over Kenworth’s 52inch sleeper, features a 24-inch liftable bunk that tilts 90 degrees for easy access to under bunk storage. There is more than 22 cubic feet of storage space to handle gear for occasional stays in the sleeper, plus storage shelves and a cell phone cubby. The interior also includes coat hooks specifically designed to hold hardhats as well as coats. There are three optional windows available on the back of the sleeper to help provide maximum visibility for drivers operating in tight locations, plus two standard toolbox doors.

Customers can also mount a variety of components on the roof, including a sunvisor, LED marker lights, spot and strobe lights, air horns, plus Qualcomm, Peo- Source: Kenworth

APHIS Final Rule Raises Agricultural Quarantine Inspection User Fees The United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) published its final rule on October 29, 2015 that adjusts the fees the U.S. Government charges to recoup the costs of conducting agricultural quarantine inspections (AQI) at U.S. ports of entry for all modes of transportation.

The changes take effect on December 28, 2015. In the case of trucking, the fees are applied whether or not a truck crossing the border is carrying agricultural products.

The USDA argues the fee adjustment – which it says was subject to an evaluation by “a well-respected” accounting firm – is necessary to align the actual cost of providing the services with what the U.S. Government charges.

In making its announcement, the USDA also said the “AQI fee adjustments are consistent with the United States’ international trade obligations” despite concerns to the contrary from both the Canadian Trucking Alliance and the Government of Canada.

When it was first published in April 2014, the rule proposed to increase the annual APHIS fee by 205% per truck entering the U.S. from Canada with transponders and up 52% more for trucks without transponders.

still looking at increases of 44-percent for nontransponder trucks and 187-percent for trucks with transponders. That is absurd and a complete contradiction of the principles of the US-Canada Beyond the Border Accord.”

APHIS fees only started being applied to Canadian shipments to the U.S. in 2007. “The fees were grudgingly tolerated by the trade community, although we always found it incredible that all trucks were being assessed the fees whether or not they were being inspected and whether or not they were carrying agricultural products,” said Bradley.

The top five commodities imported into the United States by truck are vehicles, computers, plastics, electronics, metals and stone.

Bradley pointed out that when the “nonsensical” fee increases were proposed last year, CTA obtained a legal opinion that was supported by the Government of Canada. It found the very existence of the fees is inconsistent with the United States’ obligations under Article 310 of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which says that “all fees and charges shall not represent an indirect protection to domestic products or a taxation of imports or exports for fiscal purposes.”

Bradley says he hopes the new Canadian government of Justin Trudeau will take up the issue and challenge the law as soon as it becomes effective. b

The agency then took public comments and held several stakeholder meetings and listening sessions, which CTA participated in on its own and as part of a US business coalition. The final rule was then held up for several months while it was reviewed by the White House Office of Management and Budget.

The USDA says APHIS “carefully considered all of the public input it received on the proposed rule, and adjusted the final fees in response.” As a result, certain fees have been lowered from what was proposed in April 2014. Commercial truck fees for trucks crossing the border without a transponder will now be increased to US$7.55 (from the current level of US$5.25) compared to the April 2014 proposal of US$8 per crossing.

For trucks using transponders the annual fee will rise from US$105 to US$301.67 compared to the initial proposed fee of US$320 per transponder.

The adjustments to the APHIS fee increases are of little consolation to the trucking industry, according to the president and CEO of the Canadian Trucking Alliance – a federation of the provincial trucking associations representing over 4,500 trucking companies.

“This is a cash grab and a tax on trade,” said David Bradley. “We’re Source: OTA

Peterbilt Announces Availability Of Paccar MX-11 Engine Peterbilt Motors Company announced availability of the lightweight, fuel efficient PACCAR MX-11 engine for its flagship on-highway Model 579 and vocational Model 567. The new 10.8-liter engine – introduced by PACCAR to North American markets earlier this month – will be available for order through Peterbilt dealerships beginning on November 13 and production begins in January.

“The PACCAR MX-11 engine is a great addition to Peterbilt’s lineup of technologically advanced solutions focused on delivering the highest levels of quality, durability, performance, reliability, efficiency and overall return,” said Darrin Siver, Peterbilt General Manager and PACCAR Vice President. “The PACCAR MX-11 engine provides outstanding value in a lightweight and fuel efficient design, and will continue to exceed our

ditional gray iron. The PACCAR MX-11 engine is designed to achieve an industry-leading B10 life of one million miles. It also utilizes a common rail fuel system with injection pressures of 2,500 bar to optimize combustion for low fuel consumption and noise levels.

“In addition to the weight and fuel savings, drivers will appreciate the responsiveness, performance and quiet operation of the PACCAR MX11 engine running in their Peterbilt truck,” Siver said.

All Peterbilt dealer locations will provide full support of the PACCAR MX-11 engine.

The PACCAR MX-11 engine will be produced at the state-of-the-art PACCAR engine manufacturing facility in Columbus, Miss., where the PACCAR MX-13 is produced. The PACCAR MX-13 engine recently achieved a milestone of 100,000 units produced for North America; that engine was installed in a Peterbilt Model 579 and is in operation with Kenan Advantage Group. b

high standards and our customers’ expectations.”

The PACCAR MX-11 engine has an output of up to 430 horsepower and 1,550 lb.-ft. of torque. It is ideal for a wide range of applications, including regional haul, tanker, bulk haul, construction and refuse.

PACCAR launched the MX-11 engine in Europe in 2013 and has manufactured and installed over 10,000 of the engines in vehicles built by its DAF Trucks division. PACCAR has over 50 years of engine development and manufacturing expertise.

The PACCAR MX-11 engine has six inline cylinders and a double overhead camshaft design.

PACCAR MX engines are the only commercial diesel engines to use Compacted Graphite Iron (CGI) in both the engine block and cylinder head.

ProStar

PEI Hauler Puts The New ProStar With N13 Engine To The Ultimate Test Greg Larsen noses his ProStar and its attached 53foot reefer down the snowpacked driveway of Blue Bay Farms, a potato grower nestled on the north coast of the tiny province of Canada’s Prince Edward Island.

Larsen is an Islander— a distinction you don’t receive unless you’re born here—and in the 10-degree Fahrenheit afternoon, all he’s wearing is a crewneck sweatshirt, a ball cap and a pair of cotton work gloves. He’s as strong as a bull moose, and in another life he looks like he could have been an enforcer on a hockey team instead of a truck driver. Larsen drives for Bulk Carriers, a longhaul trucking operation whose 70 apple-red International ProStars transport fresh produce all over the continent.

As he backs his truck up against one of the build-

ings, a bay door rattles open. He hops out of the cab and steps inside the barn, which is so dark and smells so much like earth that it feels like it’s underground. Fine potato dirt floats through the air.

The vegetables bounce along a series of conveyor belts to be sorted, sized and washed before being packaged and carried away by Larsen’s truck. A team of farm hands begins forklifting giant bags of potatoes on board, evenly distributing the weight of the 42,500-pound payload, that the ProStar will eventually haul to British Columbia, California, Florida or some other far-flung corner of North America.

While maintaining optimum freshness of its produce on board is a high priority for Bulk Carriers, the company has other considerations to make as well.

With fuel prices topping

$5.44 per gallon, on this blustery December day, the guys at Bulk Carriers are all asking: How do they squeeze every last mile out of the gas pump?

All About The Engine Bulk Carriers just purchased 15 brand-new ProStars with N13 engines after fleet manager Blaine Kelly, son of owner Jack Kelly, met with a pack of Navistar engineers.

“Right then and there we made the deal,” Blaine says. Since then, he’s been stunned by the leap in performance. “They told us we’d see a huge gain in fuel economy, and they were right. It’s three-quarters of a mile better [per gallon].

I don’t care who you are; that’s where you make your money at the end of the day.”

The new engine, with its Selective Catalytic Reduction, marks an exciting leap forward for Navistar.

In this industry, efficiency is everything, and Blaine knows it; that’s why he programmed his rigs to travel along the highway at no more than 62 mph.

“That’s where you get the best fuel economy, honestly,” he explains. “You’re still on time, you don’t have to be looking in the mirror behind you, and you can focus on driving and staying alert. The idea that you save more by driving a few miles an hour faster is an illusion.”

If there were a portrait of Blaine, he’d be holding a magnifying glass. The man has an intense attention to detail. Take his approach to how long his engines spend idling: “It shuts off after three minutes,” he says, whipping the number off the top of his head. “The vehicle is in control, not the driver. Idling is burnt fuel, so it’s cheaper at the end of the day to put the driver in a hotel than to let him idle.

And it’s not just the fuel you’re burning; it’s the wear and tear. We keep idling around 5% to 7%.”

“Which is phenomenally low, compared with some of our customers, who are at 15% to 25%,” adds Gary Taylor, the sales manager at East Coast International Trucks, the dealer Blaine and his family have dealt with for year.

Give And Take Blaine’s laser focus is one of the things that Taylor cherishes about his long-lasting relationship with Bulk Carriers. “One of the things that always impresses me about them is that they’re never entirely satisfied,” he says.

“And they challenge our engineers too. Next thing you know, they’re working on something together because Blaine saw something that they could improve. He’s not only been

December 2015

a great proponent of International, he’s been a good challenge for us too.”

Thanks to the N13 engine—and Blaine’s meticulous tinkering—Bulk Carriers forecasts that it will save a significant amount in costs due to increased fuel economy.

“This is the signal of change,” explains David Lockhart, East Coast’s general manager. “And when you have someone like Bulk Carriers who buys these trucks and sees instant good results, it’s an encouraging thing.”

The guys at East Coast hope that, based on Bulk Carrier’s gleaming reputation as a progressive International customer, other companies might look around and say “If Bulk is doing this, we should too.”

Keeping It In The Family Jack Kelly started the company in 1973, out of his own experience in trucking. Born to potato farmers on the Island, he was driving loads to Boston by the time he was 16 years old.

“That’s just the way it was done back then,” he says.

It started small, but these days, the company employs drivers from all over the globe—England, India, Italy, Jamaica, Kazakhstan and Tel Aviv, to name a few—aided

by Blaine in the garage and Jack’s other son, Tyson, managing the office.

Through most of the company’s history, Navistar has been right there, from the equipment itself to the OnCommand system the mechanics use to diagnose engine fault codes.

“We started buying Navistar equipment in 1980, and the quality has only continued to improve on the longhaul trucking side of things, from the comfort of their equipment to driver ergonomics,” Jack says.

Jack also cares about image, which is why he built a truck wash just a couple of miles down the road from Bulk’s headquarters. Just about any time his ProStars aren’t on the road, they’re being driven through the wash. “It makes a statement when you’re out there,” Jack says. Behind the scenes, the wash recycles its water and uses only environmentally-friendly cleaning agents.

Values are clearly important to the Kellys. “To build a successful business, you have to work hard, and you have to work smart,” Jack says. It’s a philosophy that has trickled down to his sons—and they hope it will do the same with their employees.

Inside the garage, Blaine is watching one of his guys, Ethan, struggle with a frozen bolt on one of the trucks. “I’m trying to teach these young fellas something,” Blaine says.

He slides under the hood, fiddles with the bolt for a minute, and pops it out.

“See? Persistence always pays off.”

Back in his office, Jack holds up a model of the bright-red ProStar that one of his grandsons made out of construction paper. “The fellow who built this truck will be 13 in February, and who knows? Maybe when he’s 23, he’ll be part of Bulk Carriers.”

It’s only mid-afternoon but the sun has almost disappeared, as it does during winter on Prince Edward Island. As the truck drivers rev their rigs onto the road, headed out for the next haul, they pass a white sign with one final declaration in cheerful red block letters: “Drive safe.” b Source: Navistar/Hank Highbury

In order to accomplish the demolition, a 37,000 lbs. drilling machine was crane-loaded onto a barge, floated to the pier, and offloaded atop it.

Demolishing the reinforced concrete piers is the final step in the removal of the nearly 2 mile long span.

Eco Friendly Drilling Straight To The Bottom Of San Francisco Bay Eighty years after piers were constructed in San Francisco Bay to hold up the eastern span of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, a specialized contractor is preparing to blast its sturdy footings.

pressing with its customer focused and highly productive features.

The San FranciscoOakland Bay Bridge has already has been replaced by an adjacent $6.4 billion structure that claims the title of world’s widest bridge. While the new bridge is impressive, so is the demolition job being undertaken by Florida contractor Contract Drilling & Blasting LLC. The company’s challenging task is to make a pier disappear cleanly beneath the bay

bottom without disturbing the bay’s avian and marine life.

The contractor is tasked with drilling 159 holes in Pier E3, chosen to be the demonstration pier for explosives demolition.

Cartridge charges will be placed in the holes at several levels and the pier imploded without negative impacts to marine life or environment. Environmental concerns are magnified because this is California’s first major blasting demolition in water. This means that the dust and slurry created by concrete dust emanating from the demolition cannot be allowed to degrade water quality.

In order to deal with this potential problem a system of garbage cans were put around the drill,

and all drilling residue and cuttings were collected and placed in a covered container exclusive for aggregates for hauling to shore.

It was essential that no leaks or blown hoses occur as this could lead to contamination of the water.

Clearly, Contract Drilling & Blasting had a big job on its hands.

The job was however approached with confidence as the contractor has done similar work before, though perhaps not under such tight environmental restraints. The company has developed a first class reputation in its field and now travels the world undertaking specialized blasting and demolition projects. This includes the demolition of marine structures and bridge super-

structures, as well as other underwater blasting projects. Blasting specialist for the company, Ken Tully, has recently successfully demolished bridge piers in British Columbia, Canada, which were diligently monitored for any negative environmental impact and is the Controlled Blasting Specialist for the E3 demolition project. Tully was responsible for designing the blast, overseeing the drill operations and conducting the blasting operations.

This emphasis on employee expertise on the project saw Danny Deskins drill the holes in the demonstration pier. Though Pier E3 was the first pier he worked on, Danny is a 26year veteran of precision drilling, and was able to Continued on page 11

meet the challenges head on. His expertise proved vital as the structure’s vertical rebar and cross-ties tested both machine and operator, but were drilled through successfully. Other surmounted challenges included jagged surfaces on the tops of walls and soft spots in the concrete, both of which can send a drill bit skittering one way or the other.

The drilled pier is 80 feet wide by 130 feet long and stretches downward 289 feet from its cap, with the last 180 feet being into

the muddy bottom of the bay. Beneath the pier’s cap is a supporting grid honeycombed with voids.

Horizontal cross-sections periodically intersect with three-foot-thick reinforced concrete walls. Holes were drilled into each of the three-foot interior walls as well as in four-footthick exterior walls. The holes were drilled in two depths—64 feet and 86 feet—in a pattern designed to neatly capture the exploded and inward-collapsing material at the bottom of the pier’s footprint.

More than 558 individual

electronic detonations will be separately initiated on the multiple decks, with an expected total time of 4.6 seconds.

In order to accomplish the demolition, a 37,000 lbs. drilling machine was crane-loaded onto a barge, floated to the pier, and offloaded atop it. When in place Deskins drilled 10 hours a day, five days a week. What made the drilling especially tricky, aside from environmental considerations, was the relatively thinness of the walls. Drilling a hole 2.75 inches in diameter for up

to 86 feet with little to no deviation is not a simple task. “The trick was getting to the bottom of the hole without going out one side of the wall.” Deskins says.

Tully specifically chose a Sandvik Ranger DX800 drill rig for the challenging job.

“I wanted this machine. I have used similar Sandvik equipment on other projects and was very satisfied.

The accuracy and trueness of the holes was fantastic.”

Aggregate Crusher Specialists, the Sandvik Drilling and Stationary Crushing and Screening equipment dealer for Nevada and California, promptly supplied the machine for rental when Contract Drilling & Blasting needed it. ACS President, Mike Murphy, states: “Time is of the essence in this industry; we strive to be able to supply the right equipment and the best service at the right time. Barry Wells, our Drill Specialist, was present onsite the first few days of the drill arriving to the pier and supplied the technical support during the project.”

Tully has worked around Sandvik drilling rigs for 20 years—including with predecessor Tam-

Page 11

rock units—and says he always has been impressed with their productivity.

The blasting specialist believes three features on the Ranger DX800 were critical on drilling Pier E3.

One was the rig’s reach,

which in the limited pier area can be very difficult and sometimes up to 2 to 3 feet. Another was its ability to revolve its superstructure up to 180 degrees and drill multiple holes from Continued on page 12

the same location. Those features minimize set-up time and, consequently, increase drilling time.

The other critical feature was Sandvik’s TIM5300 system, which measures

depth and inclination to a high degree of accuracy.

The enhanced drilling accuracy of the TIM5300 was needed because the pier’s three-foot-thick walls were poured in place, sometimes in multiple pours, and were

not expected to always run true. Guided by the system, combined with Tully’s selected drill string and operator, the Ranger DX800 proved productive despite the irregular material and untrue structuring. “There

were lots of surprises and adjustments to make, but we made them successfully,” says Tully, who adds: “This project was undertaken in a controlled drilling atmosphere rather than a production drilling atmosphere. I would rather take an hour on a single hole than quickly drill a bad one.”

Deskins says he couldn’t imagine having tackled the task with any other drill. He calls the Ranger DX800 an operator-friendly machine, stating: “The Cadillac of the drilling world. You really need to be precise and pay attention to the hole you are drilling, but the cabin is comfortable and you don’t have to stretch a long way. The TIM5300 system will keep up with the penetration rate, which makes it quicker for me to go through from one hole to the next. Electronically and hydraulically it is a great machine. Additional-

ly, the pier environment is a small space; you can get lots of people on the pier around you but the cameras in the cabin allow me to see everything around me. Sandvik has taken into consideration the comfort of the operator, which makes the job a lot easier for me.”

Sandvik Construction Area Sales Manager Avery Martin says such compliments from operators are not rare. “The operator is given great visibility of the hole they’re drilling. Rodchanging is done with the left hand, and joy-stick drilling and boom control with the right. All pressure gauges are in the operator’s line of sight as they look at a hole. All in all, the cabin is designed so an operator can focus 100% on drilling. From a hydraulic point of view, one feature that makes the job easier for the operator is the Rock Pilot+ control system.

The estimated time needed to actually destroy the pier after it has been drilled and laced with electronically sequenced explosives is less than six seconds. Contract Drilling & Blasting will be setting up the blast in November 2015. The month was selected because demolition during the period poses the least risk to San Francisco Bay’s fish and wildlife populations, including porpoises, sea lions and seals. Delicate tasks like this one are doable because drilling specialists and Sandvik continue to refine the machines that can do the job. b Source: Sandvik the WeldCup. Jürgen Hoffmann – who once was a competitor at “Jugend schweißt” himself – worked hard to prepare a group of apprentices over several months for a number of competitions. All of them went on to do remarkably well at the state championships in the Saarland and Rhineland-Palatinate, proving that Terex provides outstanding training. Elias Sutter himself landed first place at the Saarland state championship and then at the nationals. He then spent one week at a training camp in Kaiserslautern, where he not only practiced the art of achieving the perfect weld, but also focused on planning and welding calculations.

Dr. Klaus Beulker, Location Manager and General Manager for Terex in Zweibrücken, commented: “We’re all tremendously proud of Mr. Sutter and would like to thank our instructors for the enormous work they put into supporting our apprentices during the entire time they are with us. We believe in our future generations and put our heart and soul into making sure that we train them for a bright future.” b

Elias Sutter had the following to say about his latest accomplishment: “Austria, Belgium, Hungary, Great Britain, and Romania all had very strong teams, which made the competition really challenging.

However, I came well prepared, and that, together with the support I got from the company, allowed me to give it my best.”

Instructor Jürgen Hoffmann is proud of the young apprentice, who is part of a new generation of skilled workers at Terex: “Elias really showed everyone what he is made of! Even though he had to go up against very tough opponents from all over Europe, he prevailed. This not only shows that he’s got the necessary skills, but also proves that he’s hard-working, motivated, and able to carry out extremely precise work even when under enormous pressure.”

Quebec Government Highlights The Technical And Economic Viability Of The Anticosti Project Petrolia, Inc. (TSX VENTURE:PEA) is pleased to note that the studies that were completed for and published by The Government of Quebec as part of the Strategic Environmental Assessment (“SEA”) conclude that the Anticosti project is both economically viable and technically and environmentally feasible. The SEA is based on 64 studies conducted over the last two years by independent experts from a variety of backgrounds.

The SEA(i) highlights the following: In 2013, Quebec imported 137 million barrels of oil and 7.7 million cubic feet of natural gas from other Canadian provinces, the U.S.A. and various other countries around the world. This amounted to $13.5 billion of imported hydrocarbons, which constitutes 61% of the commercial trade deficit of the Province; The Province of Quebec has a

long history of oil & gas exploration and a number of prospective basins, including Anticosti Island, which hold great potential for the production of hydrocarbons.

In particular, the Macasty Shale formation is geologically similar to the productive Utica and Pleasant Point formations in Ohio. During a 75 year period and based on an “optimized” production scenario, Anticosti Island could produce a total of 11,683 trillion cubic feet of natural gas and 584 million barrels of oil. During the maximum production period, this could amount to 246 trillion cubic feet of natural gas and 12.3 million barrels of oil per year, which represents 113% of the annual gas consumption and 9% of the annual oil consumption for the Province; The project could have potential revenues of $169 billion and profits of $75 billion; Including

royalties, taxes and its ownership interest in the project, this could result in revenues to the Government of Quebec of $46 to $48 billion and would create more than 2,000 jobs; Based on a detailed analysis of all of the key variables including the costs of drilling, production and infrastructure for the full development of the project, the Government of Quebec expects the project to have an 80% to 86% chance of being economically viable; The full development of the project would have an impact of less than 2% of the 2020 greenhouse gas emission targets set by the Government of Quebec for 2020; The SEA suggests a variety of measures and best practices that can be implemented to address the environmental impacts of the project, considering that similar projects are being completed other places in

the world.

Petrolia commends the authors of the SEA, as it was very comprehensive in nature and represents a reasonable approach to estimate the potential value of hydrocarbon development on Anticosti Island.

Notwithstanding, reports such as these are very speculative in nature, due to the wide array of variables that need to be considered.

As previously announced, Anticosti Hydrocarbons completed the drilling of 12 stratigraphic survey wells on the Island in 2014 and 2015, which were taken into consideration in the SEA completed by the Government. Anticosti Hydrocarbons is planning, subject to the receipt of the necessary approvals, to drill and frack three horizontal wells in 2016. This drilling program will be a critical step towards understanding the hydrocarbon resource potential on Anticosti Island.

Petrolia notes that the Government’s estimate of the relative proportion of gas (77.5%) to oil (22.5%) is largely based on estimates from comparable oil & gas basins and the

actual proportions could vary from this estimate.

In these other basins, the presence of gas is essential to ensuring the economic production of oil and is an important component of the value of the resources.

It is important to highlight that this estimate of gas includes liquid hydrocarbons typically referred to as condensate. If these estimates prove to be correct, the project could produce a meaningful amount of oil, gas and condensate. The condensate is expected to consist mostly of butane, propane and ethane, which could add significant economic value to the project.

Petrolia is excited about its interest in Anticosti Hydrocarbons because, according to the Government’s studies, its permits are located in the area of the basin which is most likely to contain the liquids rich zone and best productive capacity. Anticosti Island continues to represent the largest and most prospective oil and gas project in the Province of Quebec.

“For the last several years, Petrolia is the only Quebec-based company that has taken concrete

AED Ottawa Briefing Examines Dealer Impact Of Canadian Election Results Equipment industry leaders converged on Canada’s capital on Oct. 29 for the Associated Equipment Distributors (AED) 2015 Ottawa Briefing. The meeting, held in wake of historic federal elections, provided attendees with unique insights about what Canada’s new Liberal government might mean for infrastructure, tax, regulatory, and workforce policy.

Over the course of the meeting, dealers heard from more than a dozen speakers from construction and business associations, government, and academia, including: • Matthew Wilson, senior vice president of the Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters; • Hendrik Brakel, senior director of economic, financial, and tax policy for the Canadian Chamber of Commerce; • Scotty Greenwood, senior advisor to the Canadian American Business

Council; • Pierre Gratton, president & CEO of the Mining Association of Canada; • Bill Ferreira, vice president of government relations and public affairs for the Canadian Construction Association; • Jason Burggraaf, policy and government relations advisor to the Canadian Home Builders Association; • Derek Esseltine, risk management consultant with Peter Suess Transportation Consultant Inc.; • Mike Crocco, manager of business development for Motion Industries Canada; • Sam Boutziouvis, vice president of government relations for SNC Lavalin; • Stephen Johnson, director general of the workplace partnerships directorate of Employment and Social Development Canada’s skills and em-

December 2015 steps to advance this breakthrough project for the Province of Quebec. Before the signing of the agreements in 2014, we completed $5.8 million of work on the Island. In 2014, we negotiated and signed agreements for up to $100 million of work with partners, including the Government of Quebec, for the valorization of these permits and we remain the operators of this project. Since 2008, Petrolia has been closely linked to the success and advancement of the Anticosti project” stated Alexandre Gagnon, President and CEO of Petrolia.

Petrolia is the company that holds the best portfolio of oil projects in the Province of Quebec. The hypothesis set forth in the studies published by the Government of Quebec for the additional potential for natural gas associated with the production of oil on Anticosti Island creates a fantastic opportunity for the economic development of the eastern region of Quebec, including Gaspesie and the North Shore of the St. Lawrence. b Source: Canadian Press

Toronto Opts For P3 Model To Rehab Expressway The City of Toronto has approved a proposal to pursue a public-private partnership solution to rehabilitate the aging and crumbling Gardiner Expressway.

According to a city staff report approved by council, the total capital cost estimate for the construction portion (excluding operations and maintenance, and lifecycle maintenance) of the Revised Rehabilitation Plan is $2.6 billion. The 30-year total cost jumps to $3.8 billion when long-term maintenance is included. The city will maintain ownership of the expressway.

Some of the project de-

A Value for Money Analysis has indicated that an AFP procurement would save the City at least 16 per cent or an estimated $500 million over a 30-year rehabilitation and maintenance period contract, and could reduce the construction time involving lane restrictions from 12 years to as little as six years, when compared to the results expected using a traditional multi-phased procurement approach.

The report recommends retaining Infrastructure Ontario (IO) to support the City as the procurement lead in the AFP approach based on the quality of advice and assistance received to date, combined with IO’s extensive experience in procuring and managing large-scale infrastructure projects using the AFP model Currently, almost all (over 90 per cent) of the maintenance work on the Gardiner is already contracted out, including resurfacing, line-striping, guard rail repairs, and salting and snow clearing operations. b

tails include: • The rehabilitation of the Expressway, extending from Highway 427 to the eastern limit at Logan Avenue including the 11 km at grade section from Hwy 427 to Dufferin Street with its 32 bridges and structures, and the 7 km elevated section from Dufferin Street to Logan Avenue with 335 spans.

• Incorporates the change of scope for the rehabilitation of the Gardiner Expressway east of Jarvis Street based on the future outcome of the Environmental Assessment The AFP procurement approach enables the project to qualify for up to onethird funding through Federal programs (P3 Canada Fund and the New Building Canada Fund) subject to the submission of successful business case applications and could bring in up to $820 million in additional funding, according to the report.

Wacker Neuson Continues Growth In North America Part of the global Wacker Neuson Group, based in Munich, Germany, Wacker Neuson Corporation (Wacker Neuson) is a leading manufacturer of equipment for the concrete, construction, oil and gas, landscape, agricultural, utilities and municipal industries. For over five decades, the company has served the United States from its North American headquarters in Wisconsin.

Since 1967, Wacker Neuson has supported the Canadian market with sales offices and distribution facilities in Calgary and Toronto.

The origins of business success in North America Wacker Neuson can trace its roots back to 1848, when Johann Christian Wacker founded a blacksmith shop in the city of Dresden, Germany where the company developed a high-frequency technology for internal concrete vibrators. The company’s first patent, for an electric rammer designed to compact soil, was registered in 1930. Today, as part of the global Wacker Neuson Group, Wacker Neuson

has over 400 patents and utility models and serves a highly diverse range of markets.

Originally known simply as Wacker, the company began manufacturing and marketing what has come to be known as “light” equipment in the United States back in 1957.

At that time, the company was based in Hartford, WI and was the first affiliate outside of Germany. Building on its ongoing success in the region, the Group invested in a new, larger development and production facility in Menomonee Falls near Milwaukee, WI, in 1986. Today, this facilitiy spans over 539,000 square feet dedicated to manufacturing, sales, finance, marketing, training and support. Wacker Neuson products produced in Menomonee Falls include rammers, rollers, trench rollers (soil and asphalt compaction), pumps and generators (worksite technology), and trowels (concrete technology).

In 2006, Wacker Neuson decided to enhance its portfolio of heaters and dehumidifiers for the con-

struction sector by purchasing Ground Heaters, Inc., a leading manufacturer of mobile hydronic heaters headquartered in Spring Lake, MI. As the company expanded, Wacker Neuson moved its Michigan operation to a new 168,000-square-foot production site in Norton Shores, MI where heaters, dehumidifiers and light towers are now produced.

In addition to its leadership position in the light equipment market, Wacker Neuson is establishing a growing presence in North America for compact equipment. The merger of Wacker and Austrian manufacturer Neuson Kramer in 2007 expanded the product portfolio for the US and Canada to include compact excavators (800 kg to 15 tons), wheel loaders and dumpers. Wacker Neuson is also building a strong reputation for skid steer and compact track loaders.

In early 2015, the company rolled its first models off the newly built line at the Menomonee Falls plant.

Skid steer loaders now made in the United States With R&D, engineering

and manufacturing of two powerful, high-quality skid steer loader models and two compact track loader models now in the United States, Wacker Neuson has increased its competitive edge. “We expect this product group to drive growth significantly and open up excellent synergies for the entire compact and light equipment portfolio across our US and Canadian distribution network,” says Johannes Schulze Vohren, Regional President North America.

“North America accounts for around 80 percent of sales for this product group – making it the largest market worldwide.

Adding skid steer loaders to our portfolio enables us to significantly grow our distribution network and expand our reach into the material handling market.”

Introduced at ConExpo 2014, it was very important to bring product development and production to North America. “Being

December 2015

close to our customers and to our products means that we can tailor our skid steer and compact track loaders exactly to market needs and deliver rapidly,” explains Keith Herr, Vice President and Managing Director Engineering and Production Wacker Neuson North America. “We will also be delivering our skid steer loaders to the global market.”

Wacker Neuson is currently also making targeted efforts to expand its sales platform in South America, Europe and Asia for a wide range of its North American manufactured products.

Certified Dealer Program - Excellence Award In 2014, Wacker Neuson launched its Certified Dealer program, focused on technical training, service, spare parts and branding of Wacker Neuson products. The company regularly presents its Excellence Award to dealers that excel in certain areas. “Maintaining close ties to our deal-

ers strengthens business relations, builds trust and provides us with feedback from the market, enabling us to identify scope for further improvements in technology, design, quality and service,” explains Jonathan Omer, Vice President and Managing Director Market Development Wacker Neuson North America.

Expanding the business in Latin America Complementing its growth in North America, Wacker Neuson further strengthened its presence in Latin America with two new affiliates in 2014 – one in Peru (Lima) and one in Columbia (Bogotá).

In 2015, Hugo Franz Arce Sanchez was appointed Regional President, responsible for sales in the entire region, including Wacker Neuson’s long-time sales affiliates in Mexico (Mexico City), Brazil (Jundiai, near Sao Paulo) and Chile (Santiago de Chile). b Source: Wacker Neuson

OPEC Pumps 31.2 Million Barrels Of Crude Oil Per Day in September Oil production from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) totalled 31.2 million barrels per day (b/d) in September, down 60,000 b/d from August as Saudi Arabia further reined in supply, according to a Platts survey of OPEC and oil industry officials and analysts.

“Given the Saudi oil minister’s comments last week and OPEC’s expectations of more balanced oil market fundamentals in the second half of next year, all the signals seem to point to yet another rollover of the current output ceiling in December,” said Margaret McQuaile, senior correspondent for Platts, a leading global provider of energy and commodities information. OPEC ministers are next scheduled to meet in Vienna on December 4.

Saudi Arabia was the only member country to reduce supply last month.

Small increases totalling 80,000 b/d came from Angola, Iran, Libya, Nigeria and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Saudi supply fell back to 10.26 million b/d in September from 10.4 million b/d in August, the survey estimated. But participants in the survey see Saudi Arabia’s September dip as a response to market conditions rather than as indicative of a downward trend in output that might signal a policy change.

The kingdom has been pumping in excess of 10 million b/d since March and told OPEC it produced a record 10.56 million b/d at the wellhead in June.

The 10,000 b/d increase in Iranian output comes as Tehran prepares for the lifting of sanctions that will enable it to increase crude exports from current levels of around 1 million b/d.

Iranian officials expect this to happen early next year.

The International Atomic

Energy Agency (IAE) expects to issue a final report on Tehran’s compliance with the mid-July nuclear deal by December 15.

Libyan production also rose by 10,000 b/d month on month; although volumes are still very low relative to the 1.58 million b/d the country was producing before the 2011 uprising.

Earlier this month, on October 6, production stood at 426,000 b/d, Mustafa Sanalla, chairman of stateowned NOC, told Platts via email.

Some of the difficulties facing the Libyan oil sector are technical, with ongoing problems at fields in the east. At the same time, tribal rivalry has resulted in continued blockades of key oil infrastructure across the country, although last week saw the Zueitina terminal re-open to load its first cargo of crude in more than four months.

Uncertainty remains, too, over who will eventu-

ally run Libya, as there is still no political accord between the two rival governments claiming power.

No Mechanism The overall dip in OPEC output in September follows a 140,000 b/d drop in August, which was the first fall since February, and leaves OPEC overproducing its 30 million b/d output ceiling by 1.2 million b/d. However, even if OPEC wanted to enforce the official limit, which has been in place since the beginning of 2012, it has no mechanism for doing so as there are no individual country quotas.

As OPEC’s December 4 meeting approaches, market-watchers will be looking for signals as to the likely outcome. But, nearly a year after the Saudi-led oil producer group decided to defend its share of the world oil market rather than cut production, there is no sign that a policy change may be in the offing.

Indeed, remarks by Saudi oil minister Ali Naimi, published in India’s Economic Times a week ago, suggest that the world’s top crude exporter has no plans to abandon its cur-

rent strategy, despite prices having fallen by more than half since June last year.

Naimi was quoted as saying that oil prices were determined by the market, that economic producers would “continue to prevail” and that OPEC’s market share would rise.

On Monday, OPEC upwardly revised its expectations of demand for its crude both this year and next to 29.6 million b/d and 30.8 million b/d as it lowered its non-OPEC supply projections. Indeed, it said, demand for OPEC crude could be as high as 31.4 million b/d in the sec-

ond half of next year.

The high prices of recent years have enabled independent producers to develop high-cost reserves, including shale oil in the United States. But the price plunge from as high as $115 per barrel (/b) for Brent in mid-June last year has led to most international oil companies slashing spending. The International Energy Agency has already forecast a drop of 400,000 b/d drop in U. S. shale oil output -- the main driver of non-OPEC growth -- next year. b Source: Platts

Mack Trucks Celebrates New Axle Production Line Mack Trucks inaugurated its new axle line at the Hagerstown, Maryland facility, where Mack powertrain components have been assembled since 1961.

The new line is part of a $30 million investment, which brought assembly of all Mack heavy-duty drive axles and machining of Mack carrier housings to the plant.

“Bringing axle production to Hagerstown allows us to oversee the manufacturing process – from design to assembly – and deliver the high-quality components our customers depend on,” said Stephen Roy, president of Mack Trucks North America.

“Building Mack engines, transmissions and now axles under one roof also demonstrates our continued commitment to integrated powertrain design.”

In addition to adding drive axle operations to Hagerstown, the investment was used for upgrades to the engine assembly process

Mack mDRIVE automated manual transmission, Mack MP 7 or MP 8 engines and Mack’s custom software to deliver superior fuel efficiency without compromising power or performance. Available on Mack Pinnacle highway models, combining Super Econodyne with Mack proprietary axles can increase fuel efficiency by up to 4 percent when compared with similarly spec’d vehicles.

“Hagerstown has played a crucial role in powering Mack’s truck models for more than 50 years,” said Pierre Jenny, vice president of powertrain production.

“With this new axle manufacturing capability, we are truly the birthplace of Mack’s famous Gold Bulldog, which adorns every Mack model equipped with a complete Mack proprietary powertrain.”

Mack brought assembly of the Mack mDRIVE automated manual transmission to Hagerstown in 2012. The mDRIVE, standard on the Pinnacle model, offers increased fuel efficiency, productivity and safety to Mack customers. b

and centralization of aftermarket core warehousing operations. Production on the new axle line officially began in July.

Powertrain integration has been a pillar of Mack’s design approach for more than 115 years. Through integration, Mack has the ability to engineer its proprietary components to work seamlessly together, contributing to optimized vehicle performance and increased fuel efficiency for customers.

Mack proprietary drive axles are engineered with several unique features, including a top load design and spiral bevel gears.

Together, these features deliver improved axle articulation, superior durability and increased fuel efficiency.

Customers seeking even greater fuel efficiency can spec Mack proprietary axles in combination with Mack’s Super Econodyne powertrain package. Super Econodyne integrates the Source: Mack

PSAC Releases 2016 Canadian Drilling Activity Forecast The Petroleum Services Association of Canada (PSAC) released its 2016 Canadian Drilling Activity Forecast. PSAC expects a total of 5,150 wells (rig releases) to be drilled in Canada in 2016. PSAC’s forecast suggests that next year will see the same slumped activity that hit the sector hard in 2015, but indicates the bottom has levelled off as 2015 finishes out with a total forecast of 5,340 wells drilled, in comparison.

PSAC bases its 2016 forecast on average natural gas prices of $2.75 CDN/ mcf (AECO), crude oil prices of US$53/barrel (WTI), and the Canadian dollar averaging $0.75 USD. “Low commodity prices, oversupply and low cash flows, obviously impacted us significantly in 2015, resulting in an over 50% loss of activity from previous year averages.

With those same factors continuing we can’t expect anything better for 2016,” said Mark Salkeld, PSAC’s

December 2015 sector hasn’t been able to make anything better out of a bad situation that began in 2015,” said Salkeld.

“We have the third largest oil reserves in the world, but have less than 4% of the global market share.

We’re resilient, yes, but as a country we need to get on with addressing the issues that are limiting our resource sectors, especially our energy resources, from contributing to the country’s prosperity and its reputation as a responsible developer of natural resources.” b

president and CEO. On a provincial basis for 2016, PSAC estimates 2,733 wells to be drilled in Alberta, and 1,789 wells for Saskatchewan, holding with the 2015 year-end totals estimated for those two provinces. Manitoba sees a slight improvement in activity, forecasting an increase of 31 wells (or up 12.4%) over last year. Offsetting the gain in Manitoba’s rig counts, Source: Energy Now Media British Columbia’s estimate drops by 28% from 2015, to a forecast of 344 wells drilled next year.

For the country as a whole, the 2015 year-end estimate of 5,340 wells drilled and next year’s forecast of 5,150 wells, represents drops in activity of over 50% from a five-year average of 11,670 wells per year being drilled before the oil prices collapsed at the beginning of 2015.

Liebherr Mobile Harbour Cranes Expand In Latin America In 2015, the number of Liebherr mobile harbour cranes (LHM) in the Americas continues to rise.

Models from across the range have been delivered to various countries.

LHM 600 for Terminal 4 in Argentina The most sought-after LHM model in Latin America over the past five years, type LHM 600, is still in high demand. In Buenos Aires, Terminal 4 S.A. invested in an LHM 600. This new machine is based on a special design.

An elongated tower extension ensures that the position of the tower cabin is higher than 37 metres. Besides better sight into the ship for the crane driver, one striking benefit is a higher fulcrum point which eases the handling of bigger vessels. All advantages come without any influence on safety or operational parameters like lifting capacity and travelling speed. In total, the mighty mobile harbour crane is the seventh LHM for the company and its third LHM 600.

Two further LHM 600s to Chile Two more units of this type are going to be delivered to the South American Pacific coast in the upcoming months.

Puerto Lirquén is expanding its Liebherr mobile harbour crane fleet with their seventh and eighth unit. Like the new LHM 600 for Argentina, both LHM 600s for the Chilean company are equipped with the elongated tower extension in order to ease the handling of bigger vessels. Thanks to the new machines, the total number of LHM 600s in Latin America rises to 28 units.

Brazilian company goes for LHM 550 A new LHM 550 started operation for Termaco in Fortaleza this summer. It is the first Liebherr mobile harbour crane for the Brazilian company. Equipped with a 54 metres boom, the LHM 550 will mainly be used for highly efficient

container handling.

Initial orders from Caribbean countries – Haiti, Jamaica and Suriname A newly built port in the Caribbean is the first Liebherr mobile harbour crane customer in Haiti.

In June 2015, Port Lafito received its first mobile harbour cranes. The port opted for two LHM 420s which provide hoisting and lowering speeds of up to 120 metres per minute.

Both cranes are equipped with Liebherr’s fleet management system LiDAT. The system allows for crane performance monitoring and key statistics analysis in order to ensure optimum turnover. Additionally, crane drivers benefit from simulationbased training programs which are offered in the Liebherr maritime training centre in Miami, USA. Kingston Wharves Limited opted for their first Liebherr mobile harbour crane which will also be the first of its kind in Jamaica. The new LHM 550 is equipped with a tower elongation and a 54 metres boom. It will mainly be used for container handling. The machine, which is expected to start operation later this year in Kingston, will be the biggest and strongest mobile harbour crane in Jamaica.

N.V. VSH Transport is based in Paramaribo, the capital of Suriname.

The stevedoring company provides a wide range of services to its customers.

In summer 2015, Liebherr delivered its first mobile harbour crane to the Port of Paramaribo which allows for more flexibility in cargo handling. The main task of the LHM 280 is container handling.

Montecon in Uruguay goes big with LHM 800 In 2016, Liebherr is going to deliver the world’s largest mobile harbour crane to Montecon. The LHM 800 is a future-oriented addition to Montecon’s existing cargo handling fleet. In container handling configuration the eye level is above 40 metres and

the fulcrum point is above 36 metres which naturally eases the handling of vessels. Thanks to its mighty outreach of 64 metres, the LHM 800 is able to efficiently service container vessels which are as wide as 22 container rows.

Tropical Shipping new Liebherr mobile harbour crane customer Tropical Shipping has provided shipping service to The Bahamas and the Caribbean for more than 50 years. Recently, the American company has invested in their first Liebherr mobile harbour crane, type LHM 420. In summer 2015, the new crane started operation in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Bigger cranes for Latin America Big crane models still dominate the mobile harbour crane orders from Latin America. In 2015, the LHM 600 is again the favourite choice, as it was in 2013 and 2014. Next year’s delivery of the giant mobile harbour crane LHM 800 to Uruguay will mark a new highlight in this regard. b Source: Liebherr

ber, the BCOGC permitting process was the last major regulatory step for PRGT. At the same time, we continue to work towards securing more Project Agreements with First Nations, which provide significant financial benefits while addressing cultural and environmental interests.”

The BCOGC permits cover the entire 900 kilometre route from just north of Hudson’s Hope, B.C. to Lelu Island, off the coast of Port Edward, near Prince Rupert. As well, the permits approve construction

of three compressor stations and a meter station where the gas is to be delivered to the Pacific NorthWest (PNW) LNG facility.

The PRGT project - approximately 780 kilometres of land pipeline and 110 kilometres of marine pipeline will connect the natural gas production in the Montney fields of northeastern B.C. with the proposed PNW LNG liquefaction facility on Lelu Island.

In order for PRGT to proceed with construction, PNW LNG must receive a positive decision from the

federal government under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012. Once approval is received, and PNW LNG has confirmed its decision to proceed with the project, PRGT will begin site preparation for camp locations and right-of-way clearing, with commencement of pipeline construction activities shortly thereafter.

The PRGT project will provide significant economic benefits for British Columbians, local and provincial governments and Aboriginal communities as it supports the export of surplus natural gas to global markets, including: • Thousands of short-term jobs directed at B.C. residents; • Opportunities for local and Aboriginal businesses; • Millions of dollars in annual taxes to help support local services such as schools, policing, fire protection, and waste management; • Billions of dollars in new investments for the province.

TransCanada is advancing the development of approximately $13 billion in

natural gas projects in B.C. which will generate significant construction spending in the province plus taxation, jobs and other benefits.

With more than 65 years’ experience, TransCanada is a leader in the responsible development and reliable operation of North American energy infrastructure including natural gas and liquids pipelines, power generation and gas storage facilities. TransCanada operates a network of natural gas pipelines that extends more than 68,000 kilometres (42,100 miles), tapping into virtually all major gas supply basins in North America. TransCanada is one of the continent’s largest providers of gas storage and related services with 368 billion cubic feet of storage capacity. A growing independent power producer, TransCanada owns or has interests in over 10,900 megawatts of power generation in Canada and the United States.

TransCanada is developing one of North America’s largest liquids delivery systems. b Source: Canadian Press
