Sarnia Industrial Pipeline Reinforcement Project
Demand for natural gas from industries in the Sarnia area is increasing. As a result, Enbridge Gas is constructing a new natural gas pipeline between our existing Dow valve site and Bluewater interconnect transmission stations in the Township of St. Clair.
The pipeline will be 20 inches in diameter, and approximately 1.2 km in length. Please view a map of the project.
The project was approved by the Ontario Energy Board (OEB). Construction is planned to begin as early as spring 2021, with an in-service date of fall 2021.
We take great care to construct our projects in a respectful manner that minimizes community impacts.
We've been safely operating in Ontario for more than 100 years, and carry our strong and established safety culture to each and every project. Safety is our top priority, and Enbridge Gas pipelines and facilities are designed to meet stringent safety codes and requirements of the Canadian Standards Association and the Technical Standards and Safety Authority.
We are also a big contributor to the economic vitality of the province. Our experienced pipeline contractors, for example, will use many local resources to build the pipeline and where possible will procure materials from the local community.
