PROJECT SUMMARY:
Enbridge is a multinational energy company headquartered Canada. It owns and operates pipelines throughout Canada and the United States, transporting crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids. Their expansive pipeline system is the longest in North America moving nearly 25% of all the crude oil produced there.
The primary objective of the Utility Power Upgrade Project was to install two (2) three-winding 138 kV power transformers to carry the site load and allow de-energization of the existing 72–4.16 kV substation.
The work included installation of a new electrical services building (430-ESB), fabrication and installation of cable tray support structures and all associated civil works, cable tray systems, installation of 5,600 m of medium voltage cables, 162 terminations as well as low voltage power and control cables and cable testing. The project required several time critical outages which needed to be executed concurrently with other sites to allow transferring loads from the existing 72 kV–4.16 kV substation to the new electrical services building.
