NOVA Chemicals Corporation (NOVA Chemicals)
today announced that the first barrels of
ethane
supplied from natural gas associated
with oil production from Bakken Shale
are being utilized at its Joffre, Alberta complex.
The ethane was produced at
Hess Corporation’s Tioga, North Dakota plant and
transported across the border into Alberta
via the Vantage Pipeline.
The Vantage Pipeline connects to
the Alberta Ethane Gathering System (AEGS)
in Empress, Alberta for the final journey to Joffre.
NOVA Chemicals is the contract operator of
both AEGS and the Vantage Pipeline.
The Vantage Pipeline
has an initial design capacity of 40,000 bpd
but is expandable to greater than 60,000 bpd,
a volume that reflects more than 20% of
Alberta’s existing installed ethylene production capacity.
Ethane extracted from associated gas produced
from Bakken Shale is expected to be a growing
and stable feedstock supply source for
the Alberta petrochemical industry.
NOVA Chemicals : Corporate Overview
Current businesses and joint ventures
focus on ethylene and polyethylene and
Performance Styrenic polymers.
