Keystone XL Controversy On July 26, 2011, the US House of Representatives approved a bill that sets a November 1, 2011 deadline for the US administration to decide on TransCanada’s application for a cross-border permit for its proposed Keystone XL pipeline project.1 The Keystone XL pipeline proposal has been one of the primary focuses of the North American energy industry and the environmental community. On one hand, proponents point out that increased crude volumes via the Keystone XL pipeline could reduce the US dependence on oil imports from less reliable foreign sources and provide economic benefits, such as job creation or preservation. On the other hand, the opponents, primarily environmental groups and affected communities along the route, object on the grounds that the project supports “dirty” Canadian oil sands development, potentially poses an environmental risk to groundwater, and promotes continued US dependence on hydrocarbons.2

Implications on Crude Prices If the Keystone XL gets approved, the current pipeline capacity out of Western Canada will be expanded by 700,000 bpd, potentially to 900,000 bpd. Canadian supplies, once they reach Gulf of Mexico refiners, will be expected to compete with other heavy crudes such as those from Mexico and Venezuela. It is difficult to say how this competition will play out, but it may happen through reallocating discounts or premiums on crude oils from various sources.

building the pipeline would not increase global supply. The latter assumes that the resources would be trapped without the pipeline. Some have argued that Canadian oil sands production would be the same regardless of whether the Keystone XL pipeline is built or not.5 Specifically, the “Keystone XL Assessment – No Expansion Update” report confirmed prior conclusions of the earlier version6 of that report, which basically states that the Keystone XL pipeline is not required to meet the needs of growing oil sands production levels. The study goes on to say that over time rail, barge, tanker and upgrading could potentially be able to provide at least 2 MMbpd of capacity to export WCSB crude oils, assuming no pipeline capacity expansions at all beyond what currently exists in 2011. Then, the pipeline itself may not make a significant enough contribution to increasing global oil supply. However, if an alternative transport route to market—for instance, via a pipeline to the West coast and then tanker to Asia—raises transport costs thereby depressing netbacks below an economically accepted threshold, it could prevent certain marginal oil sands projects from being built. The possibility of these alternative scenarios, including pipeline access to the Pacific Coast, rail, barge, tanker and upgrading depends largely on complex assumptions about oil market structure and economics.

Lost Benefits if Keystone XL Pipeline Project Cancelled Besides increasing energy security for the US, there exist economic benefits to the US (and Canada) that could be lost if the Keystone XL does not get built. While the economic impacts from construction and operation of the Keystone XL pipeline are not directly captured, a recently published study by CERI7 estimates that if the project is cancelled, Canada would forego $197 billion over the 2010-2020 period in additional GDP due to oil sands production not being shipped via Keystone XL. The US would forego $46 billion over 10 years in additional GDP, with 43 percent lost to PADD II, 22 percent lost to PADD I, 16 percent lost to PADD V, 12 percent lost to PADD III, and 7 percent lost to PADD IV. In terms of employment, over the 10-year period, Canada would lose out on a total of 1.2 million person years of employment creation. The US total of lost employment would be 0.5 million person years. PADD II would lose 43 percent of that total, followed by PADD I (23 percent), PADD V (15 percent), PADD III (12 percent), and PADD IV (7 percent).

Bottom Line The pipeline controversy is misguided. The successful completion of this pipeline will increase the supply of oil coming into the US, and economic impacts are quite significant to just simply ignore, especially given high unemployment in the US. The increased supply would also most likely decrease the crude price and the price of refined products such as gasoline, which will be a welcomed relief for consumers. In regards to emissions, the size of the environmental impacts of oil sands development, in absolute terms and when compared to other conventional crudes, is the subject of various and sometimes conflicting studies.8 Some opponents argue that Keystone XL will expand access to new markets, thus supporting “dirty” oil sands development. However, if oil sands production volumes are redirected somewhere else, for example to Asia, cancelling the Keystone XL project may not necessarily limit the oil sands development. The argument should not be about whether to let the pipeline be approved or not, but of a larger dimension than just a pipeline. If the goal is to reduce emissions, then the answer lies on the demand side, starting with the transportation sector, which is the largest consumer of crude oil. Demand-side management practices could be implemented instead of trying to limit the supply and thus force change in the behaviour of consumers. New technological advancements in developing hybrid and/or electric vehicles could be encouraged, supported and widely accepted. Endnotes 1Snow, Nick. “US House passes bill to expedite Keystone XL permit decision”, Oil & Gas Journal, Volume 109, Issue 31. 2Arguments about GHG emissions of oil sands production are based on some degree on the belief that limiting pipeline capacity to US markets may limit output from oil sands. 3Welsch, Edward. “TransCanada: Oil Sands Exports Will Go to Asia if Blocked in U.S.” Dow Jones Newswires, June 2010. 4EnSys Energy & Systems, Inc. “Keystone XL Assessment: Final Report”.

Notes: 1. Totals for OECD and non-OECD supply include net refining gains; specific regions/groupings within each do not. 2. OPEC demand is an estimate based on

historical annual data. 3. Balance for World equals global stockbuilds (+) and stockdraws (-) for crude oil and petroleum products and miscellaneous gains and

losses. Regional surpluses (+) and deficits (-) are balanced through net-imports and stock changes in the short-term, and net-imports in the longer term. Supply

includes crude oil, condensates, NGLs, oil from non-conventional sources and processing gains. Demand is for petroleum products.

Geographical Specifications

1. The World: OECD is comprised of countries from three regions: North America (Canada, Mexico, US); Europe (Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic,

Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, the Slovak

Republic, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, UK); and Asia-Pacific (Australia, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea). OPEC is comprised of Persian Gulf (Iran,

Iraq, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates) and non-Persian Gulf countries (Algeria, Indonesia, Libya, Nigeria, Venezuela). Non-OECD is

comprised of countries from three regions: Former Soviet Union (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kirghizstan, Moldova, Russia,

Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan); Asia (including non-OECD

Oceania); and non-Asia (Africa, Middle East, Latin America, and non-

OECD Europe). 2. United States: East (PADD I) – New England

(Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island,

Vermont); Central Atlantic (Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, New York,

Pennsylvania, and the District of Columbia) and Lower Atlantic (Florida,

Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia). Mid

-West (PADD II) – Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan,

Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South

Dakota, Tennessee, and Wisconsin. South-Central (PADD III) – Alabama,

Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico and Texas. North-West

(PADD V) – Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon,

Washington.

3. Canada: East is comprised of Ontario, Manitoba, Quebec and the

Maritime provinces (New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova

Scotia, and Prince Edward Island). West is comprised of Alberta, British

Columbia, Saskatchewan and the northern territories (NorthWest

Territories, Nunavuut, and Yukon).

Additional Notes

1. Petroleum and oil refer to crude oil and natural gas liquids (NGLs),

whereas crude oil refers to its namesake and field condensates.

Condensates derived from natural gas processing plants are classified as

NGLs. 2. The spot price is for immediate delivery of crude oil or refined

products at a specific location. Spot transactions are generally on a cargo

by cargo basis. In contrast, a futures price is for delivery of a specified

quantity of a commodity at a specified time and place in the future. 3.

Crude oil sold Free-On-Board (FOB) is made available to the buyer at the

loading port at a particular time, with transportation and insurance the

responsibility of the buyer. Crude oil sold Cost-Insurance-Freight (CIF) is

priced at a major destination point, with the seller responsible for the

transportation and insurance to that point. A “Delivered” transaction is

similar to a CIF transaction, except the buyer in the former pays based on the quantity and quality ascertained at the unloading port, whereas in a CIF

transaction, the buyer accepts the quantity and quality as determined at the loading port. 4. Processing gain is the volume of which refinery output is

greater than crude oil inputs. The difference is due to the processing of crude oil products, which in total have a lower specific gravity than crude oil. 5.

Unaccounted for crude oil reconciles the difference between crude input to refineries and the sum of domestic production, net imports/exports, stock

changes and documented losses (in the U.S.). 6. Totals may not equal the sum of their parts in the statistical tables due to rounding.
