In 2010 Glen Perry, a petroleum engineer for Adira Energy, warned that including the Alberta Clipper pipeline owned by TransCanada's competitor Enbridge, there is an extensive overcapacity of oil pipelines from Canada. [171] After completion of the Keystone XL line, oil pipelines to the U.S. may run nearly half-empty.
The major oil pipelines exiting Western Canada have a design transport capacity of 4.0 million b/d. [54] In 2016, however, the pipeline capacity was estimated at 3.9 million b/d, [1] and in 2017 the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) estimated the pipeline capacity to be 3.3 million b/d.

Over half (1,070 km) of the pipeline is located in Canada, between Alberta and Manitoba. Per day, the pipeline transports an average of 390,000 barrels of light, medium and heavy crude oil. [40] Line 4 is a 1,722 km (1,101 mi) crude oil pipeline starting at the Edmonton terminal to the Superior terminal.
The pipelines from western Canada to Superior had been completed in 1950. Prior to the construction of Line 5, the crude oil was conveyed from Superior to southern Ontario by oil tankers. [10] In 2013, the line's capacity was increased by 50,000 barrels (7,900 m 3) per day, from 490,000 to 540,000 barrels (78,000 to 86,000 m 3). [11]
The TransCanada pipeline right-of-way through Panmure Alvar, west of Ottawa. The completion of this project was a spectacular technological achievement. In the first three years of construction (1956–1958), workers installed 3,500 kilometres of pipe, stretching from the Alberta–Saskatchewan border to Toronto and Montreal.
