Regulation of Access to Oil Pipelines 777
REGULATION OF ACCESS TO OIL PIPELINES 777 THE NATIONAL ENERGY BOARD: REGULATION OF ACCESS TO OIL PIPELINES JENNIFER HOCKING* In the past few years, a number of long-distance oil pipelines have been proposed in Canada — Northern Gateway, the Trans Mountain Expansion, Keystone, and the Energy East Project. This article describes the criteria used by the National Energy Board in approving the allocation of capacity in oil pipelines to firm service contracts while requiring that a reasonable percentage of capacity is allocated for uncommitted volumes (common carriage). It explains the economic theory related to regulation of access to major oil pipelines. It reviews and analyzes relevant NEB decisions, which show that the NEB supports well- functioning competitive markets, but will exercise its discretion to resolve complaints where markets are not functioning properly. The article also explains the economic significance of the proposed long-distance oil pipelines to Canada and Alberta despite the current low price of crude oil. The article concludes with recommendations for a written NEB policy regarding access to capacity in oil pipelines. TABLE OF CONTENTS I.

Concerns Regarding Tar Sand Crude and the Proposed Seaway Pipeline
Concerns Regarding Tar Sand Crude and the Proposed Seaway Pipeline DFW Water Supplies Threatened Submitted by Seaway - A Pipeline of Poison The Enbridge Seaway pipeline is slated to start operations June 2012. It will reverse a 36-year old pipeline to carry bitumen crude from Cushing to the Gulf coast. Concerns regarding the Seaway include the following: • Dilbit is far more toxic -- and explosive than conventional crude. • Pipeline transports highly pressurized, acidic and corrosive material making pipes susceptible to rupture. • Aging pipeline is 36 years old. • Dilbit spill threatens DFW water supplies and their tributaries with proprietary material that is difficult, if not impossible to clean up. • Tar sand crude will increase U.S. oil costs 2-4 billion dollars. • Tar sand is meant for export, not to decrease our dependency on foreign oil. • Lack of oversight demands both federal and state agency intervention. Seaway Tar Sand Pipeline is Coming to DFW On November 16, 2011, Enbridge Inc. announced the purchase of a 50% share of the 670-mile Seaway Crude Pipeline System. Enterprise Products Partners L.P. will continue to own the other 50% of Seaway and will operate the system. The Seaway is an existing crude oil transportation network, originally built for natural gas, that includes a 500-mile segment from Freeport, Texas to Cushing, Oklahoma. Seaway will be reversed to carry diluted bitumen from Cushing to the vast refinery complex near Houston and the Texas City Terminal. Anticipating the pipeline’s reversed service as early as June 2012, the change from its current feedstock to the more viscous bitumen will result in a reduced throughput of 350,000 to 150,000 barrels per day. -

DTE Energy, Enbridge and Spectra Energy to Develop New Major Pipeline to Connect
DTE Energy, Enbridge and Spectra Energy to Develop New Major Pipeline to Connect Growing Utica Shale Gas Supplies to Premium Markets in the U.S. Midwest and Ontario Sep 4, 2012 HOUSTON – DTE Energy (NYSE: DTE), Enbridge Inc. (NYSE: ENB) and Spectra Energy Corp (NYSE: SE) (the “Partners”) today announced the execution of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to jointly develop the NEXUS Gas Transmission (NGT) system, a project that will move growing supplies of Ohio Utica shale gas to markets in the U.S. Midwest, including Ohio and Michigan, and Ontario, Canada. The proposed NGT project will originate in northeastern Ohio, include approximately 250 miles of large diameter pipe, and be capable of transporting one billion cubic feet per day of natural gas. The line will follow existing utility corridors to an interconnect in Michigan and utilize the existing Vector Pipeline system to reach the Ontario market. Upon completion of the project, Spectra Energy will become a 20-percent owner in Vector Pipeline, a joint venture between DTE Energy and Enbridge. The new pipeline will serve local distribution companies, power generators and industrial users in the Ohio, Michigan and Ontario markets. It will include interconnects with Michigan Consolidated Gas Company, Consumers Energy and, through the Vector Pipeline, the Enbridge Tecumseh Gas Storage facility and Union Gas’ Dawn Hub, both in Ontario. The Partners have received expressions of interest for a significant level of firm capacity to anchor the project. An open season for the project is planned for fourth quarter 2012, with a targeted in-service as early as November 2015, depending on final market demand and commitments. -
