Project Name*:

The Prairie Connector Pipeline is an oil network expansion extending crude oil transportation from Hardisty, Alberta to the Canada–U.S. border, connecting downstream to Bridger Pipeline Expansion system serving Cushing, Oklahoma and the U.S. Gulf Coast.

It combines new 36-inch pipe with reused Keystone XL infrastructure and is backed by 20-year binding shipper commitments from a May 2026 open season for 465,000 barrels per day. South Bow targets a final investment decision (FID) around mid-2027.
