Remember when you told me how stupid I was for suggesting they build the Keystone to ND and wait.

Where does the pipeline end currently?

[thackney]

The Keystone XL is sized 830,000 barrels per day.

FERC regulated common carrier pipelines crossing state lines do not have the option to just build and see who comes. They are required to have an open season and show commitments from companies to move oil in that location.

I should have clarified:

Brown, Green and Orange portions are already built and in service.

The Orange, The Gulf Coast Pipeline, just went into service this week and is still filling with oil.

Also, the Keystone XL route never even enters North Dakota. It was a pipeline primarily to bring in Canadian Oil Sand production.
