  1. The Future of Sustainable Pipeline Development • BC Energy Conference, Fort St. John • October 3, 2013

  2. Outline • About our Industry • B.C. Information • About CEPA • Current Canadian Pipeline Context • Our Response 2

  3. About Our Industry • Over 60 years of operating history in Canada • Highly regulated industry • Pipelines are among the safest and most environmentally sound way to transport oil and gas products • Contributed to $8.8 billion to Canada’s GDP, $1.9 billion in labour income and 25,000 full time equivalent jobs in 2013

  4. Transmission Pipelines – Our Energy Highways Transmission pipelines in Canada transport nearly 3 million barrels of oil a day

  5. Safe and Reliable • Efficient • Investment and Growth Transmission Pipelines • Invest more than $1.6 billion annually to ensure safe delivery • Transport virtually all of the natural gas and onshore crude oil produced in Canada • Propose to invest more than $22 billion in pipeline projects over next five years
