BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A U.S. State Department consultant’s report says Canadian tar sands oil will almost certainly move to U.S. refineries even if a $7 billion pipeline from western Canada to the Gulf Coast fails to get federal approval. The report from EnSys Energy & Systems Inc. says if the proposed Keystone XL pipeline or a similar pipeline project is halted, the oil would still likely move to U.S. refineries by rail, barge or trucks. The report estimates that rail alone could haul 1.25 million barrels of Canadian crude daily by 2030, or nearly twice the amount that would be carried by the pipeline proposed by Calgary-based TransCanada. The report cites North Dakota’s booming oil patch as an example of how railroads can quickly ramp up to meet demand.
