Billings (US), June 10: The sponsor of the Keystone XL crude oil pipeline has said that it is pulling the plug on the contentious project after Canadian officials failed to persuade President Joe Biden to reverse his cancellation of its permit on the day he took office.
Calgary-based TC Energy said on Wednesday it would work with government agencies to ensure a safe termination of and exit from the partially built line, which was to transport crude from the oil sand fields of western Canada to Steele City, Nebraska.
Construction on the 1,930-kilometer pipeline began last year when former President Donald Trump revived the long-delayed project after it had stalled under the Obama administration.
It would have moved up to 830,000 barrels (35 million gallons) of crude daily, connecting in Nebraska to other pipelines that feed oil refineries on the U.S. Gulf Coast.
Biden cancelled it in January over longstanding concerns that burning oil sands crude would make climate change worse.
Canada Prime Minster Justin Trudeau objected to the move, but officials in Alberta, where the line originated, expressed disappointment in recent weeks that he didnt lobby harder to reinstate the pipelines permit.
Attorneys general from 21 states had sued to overturn Bidens cancellation of the contentious pipeline, which would have created thousands of construction jobs. (AGENCIES)
