Canada: Enbridge Gateway Win Shows Stopping Keystone Wont Halt Oil
2013-12-21 15:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Bloomberg: Keystone XL backers say the proliferation of alternative projects, such as one to carry oil-sands crude to a Canadian seaport that advanced yesterday, undercuts opponents who claim blocking the pipeline will keep the high-carbon fossil fuel in the ground. Canadian energy regulators yesterday recommended approval with conditions of Enbridge Inc. (ENB)s Northern Gateway pipeline, a project that would bring as much as 525,000 barrels a day of crude to Kitimat, British Columbia. The recommendation,...
Obama's Keystone Carbon Test Sets Precedent
2013-12-20 06:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Bloomberg: Rejecting TransCanada Corp. (TRP)s $5.4 billion Keystone XL pipeline due to carbon emissions in the oil sands would set a precedent for all U.S. infrastructure projects, Chief Executive Officer Russ Girling said. It would be harder to build car plants and T-shirt factories, as well as other cross-border pipelines, if President Barack Obama makes a decision on the proposed 830,000-barrel-a-day line based primarily on emissions from oil-sands development, Girling said yesterday in an interview at...

This is another important milestone for TransCanada, our shippers and the refiners on the U.S. Gulf Coast who have been waiting for this product to arrive, Howard said.

Omaha World-Herald: Nebraska now stands alone when it comes to landowners who have yet to sign easements for the proposed Keystone XL oil pipeline. TransCanada Inc., the company that wants to build the 1,700-mile crude oil pipeline, announced recently that it has reached agreement with 100 percent of landowners in five of the six states on the project route. The remaining holdouts are in Nebraska. The company says it has agreed to easement terms with 73 percent of the private landowners in Nebraska. That equates to...

Get ready for another Keystone XL showdown on Capitol Hill
2013-12-18 08:26:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Grist: Congressional Republicans are feeling heat from their base for compromising with the president and Senate Democrats on the budget - or, as we used to call it, governing. And so, with yet another debt-ceiling limit increase on the horizon in February or March, House Budget Chair Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) and Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) have said we will default on the national debt unless they extract some concessions. Can you guess what such a concession might be? Heres Ryan on...
