COGENERATION PLANT and HYDROGEN PIPELINE Addendum to Decision 2000-30 FORT SASKATCHEWAN AREA Applications No.990464 and 1051618
ALBERTA ENERGY AND UTILITIES BOARD Calgary Alberta SHELL CANADA LIMITED COGENERATION PLANT AND HYDROGEN PIPELINE Addendum to Decision 2000-30 FORT SASKATCHEWAN AREA Applications No.990464 and 1051618 DECISION 2000-30 The Alberta Energy and Utilities Board (Board/EUB) issued Decision 2000-30 (attached) on May 30, 2000, approving the applications. This addendum provides the reasons for the Board’s decisions. 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Application 990464 Shell Canada Limited (Shell) applied to the Board, pursuant to Section 9 of the Hydro and Electric Energy Act, for approval to construct and operate a 150 megawatt (MW) natural-gas- fired cogeneration plant on its approved Scotford Upgrader site. This site is adjacent to the Scotford Refinery in Strathcona County, about 14 km north of Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta. The cogeneration plant would include • a natural-gas-fired combustion gas turbine, which would generate 80 MW of electric power, • a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG), and • a steam turbine, which would generate about 70 MW of electric power. The applicant described the cogeneration process as follows: • Natural gas would be fired in the combustion turbine to generate about 80 MW of electricity. • Heat would be recovered from the hot combustion turbine exhaust gases in the HRSG, which would produce steam. • The steam would be delivered to the upgrader to help meet its steam requirements. • High-pressure HRSG steam and the excess high-pressure steam from the upgrader process units would be delivered to the steam turbine to produce an additional 70 MW of electricity. 1.2 Application 1051618 Shell also applied, pursuant to Part 4 of the Pipeline Act, for approval to construct and operate approximately 8.7 km of 762 mm outside diameter pipeline to transport hydrogen gas from the existing Dow Chemical Canada Inc. -

NACE Tour and Dinner Meeting Shell Scotford Upgrader Shell Scotford Upgrader
NACE Tour and Dinner Meeting Tuesday, May 20, 2008 Shell Scotford Upgrader Dow Center, Fort Saskatchewan, AB TTTOOOPPPIIIICCC Shell Scotford Upgrader Plant Tour SSSPPPEEEAAAKKKEEERRR Harm de Groot P.Eng. Engineering Services Coordinator Shell Canada Scotford Upgrader It has been a while since NACE Edmonton has organized a plant tour so we are happy to announce that Shell has offered to organize a plant tour of their Upgrader plant for NACE Edmonton, ASM and AWS members. For now the tour is limited to 40 people so please make sure that if you are interested sign up in time. After the tour there will be a dinner and a presentation on materials and corrosion issues in Upgraders by Harm de Groot. The Scotford Upgrader is located next to Shell Canada's Scotford Refinery near Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta. The Scotford Upgrader uses hydrogen-addition technology to upgrade the high viscosity "extra heavy" crude oil (called bitumen) from the Muskeg River Mine into a wide range of synthetic crude oils. A significant portion of the output of the Scotford Upgrader is sold to the Scotford Refinery. Both light and heavy crudes are also sold to Shell's Sarnia Refinery in Ontario. The balance of the synthetic crude is sold to the general marketplace. The Scotford Upgrader - which is part of the joint venture project between Shell Canada, Chevron Canada (a wholly owned subsidiary of Chevron Corporation) and Western Oil Sands – is operated by Shell Canada. UUUpppgggrrraaadddiiiiiinnnggg Upgrading is the process of breaking large hydrocarbon molecules (such as bitumen) into smaller ones by increasing the hydrogen to carbon ratio. -

The Scotford Upgrader uses hydrogen-addition technology to upgrade the high viscosity “extra heavy” crude oil (called bitumen) from the Muskeg River Mine into a wide range of synthetic crude oils. A significant portion of the output of the Scotford Upgrader is sold to the Scotford Refinery. Both light and heavy crudes are also sold to Shell’s Sarnia Refinery in Ontario. The balance of the synthetic crude is sold to the general Shell Scotford Upgrader marketplace. Expansion One increased production by 100,000 What is Upgrading? barrels per day. Upgrading is the process of breaking large hydrocarbon molecules (such as bitumen) into smaller ones by increasing the hydrogen to carbon ratio. These upgraded crude oils are suitable feedstocks for refineries, which will process them into refined products like gasoline. Scotford’s upgrading process adds hydrogen to the bitumen, breaking up the large hydrocarbon molecules - this process is called hydrogen-addition or hydrogen-conversion. The original Upgrader completed in 2003 had a capacity of 155,000 barrels per day (bpd). Shell Expansion One will add 100,000 bpd. This project will start production in 2011. Most of the construction was completed in 2010. Economic Impact • Construction jobs: Peaked in 2010 at 12,000 workers on site. -
Explaining Variation in Oil Sands Pipeline Projects
Canadian Journal of Political Science (2020), 1–20 doi:10.1017/S0008423920000190 RESEARCH ARTICLE/ÉTUDE ORIGINALE Explaining Variation in Oil Sands Pipeline Projects Amy Janzwood* Department of Political Science, University of Toronto, 100 St. George, Toronto ON, M5S 3G3 *Corresponding author. Email: [email protected]. Abstract While the vast majority of oil pipeline projects in Canada have been successfully built, several mega oil sands projects within and passing through Canada have been cancelled or significantly delayed. This article explains why these delays and cancellations have occurred. A systematic cross-case analysis is used to provide insight into the changing politics of oil sands pipelines. Qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) is used to identify combinations of causal conditions that co-occur across cases of proposed new oil pipelines and pipeline expansion projects. The pipeline projects were proposed to the federal regulator—the National Energy Board—between 2006 and 2014. The QCA reveals that social mobilization and major regulatory barrier(s) are necessary conditions in explaining variation in pipeline project outcomes. The analysis of sufficiency reveals more complex configurations of conditions. This article contributes to the literature on the politics of oil sands pipelines by using a comparative approach to identify the impacts of socio-polit- ical and legal dynamics that have emerged around pipelines in the last 15 years. Résumé Cet article explique les raisons pour lesquelles plusieurs propositions récentes de méga- pipelines à l’intérieur du Canada et passant à travers le pays ont été annulées ou considérablement retardées. Alors que la grande majorité des projets d’oléoducs ont été construits avec succès, plusieurs mégaprojets de sables bitumineux ont été mis de côté ou ont subi des retards importants. -
