Pipeline Systems & Processing Facilities

Husky has been involved with the gathering, transportation and storage of heavy crude oil in the Lloydminster area on the Alberta and Saskatchewan border since the 1960s. The Company has more than 2,000 kilometres of crude oil pipeline to handle blended heavy crude oil, diluent and synthetic crude oil.

The pipeline infrastructure includes two pipeline systems, one in Alberta and the other in Saskatchewan. The pipeline system transports blended heavy crude oil to the Lloydminster pipeline terminal, which serves as the hub for Husky’s heavy oil upgrader and asphalt refinery in Lloydminster.

Blended heavy crude oil and bitumen from heavy oil operations and synthetic crude oil from the upgrading operations are shipped from Lloydminster via Husky's Mainline pipeline to Hardisty, Alberta, to connect with the Enbridge, Kinder Morgan (Express), InterPipeline Fund (IPF) and the TransCanada Keystone pipelines. These pipelines transport the oil to markets in eastern Canada and the United States.

Husky has feeder pipeline interconnections with the IPF Cold Lake Pipeline at Cold Lake and Hardisty, as well as the Echo Pipeline, Chauvin Pipeline and Gibson Terminal at Hardisty, all located in Alberta.
