No where could I find how much this pipeline could handle.

Keystone Pipeline System

Commercial Information

The first leg of the Keystone Pipeline from Hardisty, Alta. to Wood River and Patoka, Ill. has capacity of 435,000 barrels per day.

Phase II of the project to Cushing, Okla. increases capacity to 591,000 barrels per day.

Keystone XL will add an additional 500,000 barrels per day in 2013.

When completed, Keystone XL will increase the commercial design of the Keystone Pipeline System from 591,000 barrels per day to approximately 1.1 million barrels per day.

I was referring to the article in Fuel Fix which stated that Enterprise of Houston and Enbridge could move the oil thru their pipeline. The article stated that Enbridge’s line runs from Alberta to Chicago and on to Cushing, OK. Enterprise is talking about adding a line called Wrangler to move the oil from Cushing to Houston.

I was just wondering if this line had to capacity to handle an additional 500 to 900 bbl/d.
