Aux Sable Canada Ltd. has inked a deal to sell upto 8000 bpd ethane and ethylene from its Heartland off-gas plant to Dow Chemical Canada Inc. The Heartland off-gas plant is under construction and is located north of Dow Chemical's complex in Fort Saskatchewan, northeast of Edmonton. Feedstock supply to the plant will come from BA Energy's Heartland upgrader.
Aux Sable, a joint venture of Enbridge Inc., Fort Chicago Energy Partners and Williams Cos., will be the first in Canada to extract ethane and ethylene from the byproduct gas of a bitumen upgrader. Aux Sable and Dow also have entered into a strategic alliance to develop future upgrader off-gas processing projects supplying feedstock for Dow in Fort Saskatchewan. Aux Sable's Sable NGL Canada affiliate is to build, own and operate these off-gas facilities, with Dow as the exclusive customer.
