activities
Enbridge operates the world's largest pipeline system in Canada and the United States. The company is owned and operated by Enbridge Pipelines Inc. The company also has a 27% stake in Enbridge Energy Partners, LP , which owns Lakehead Systems in the US. The system has been in operation since the 1960s and has a length of 13,500 km. Over 2 million barrels are pumped through the system every day.
Enbridge has a large distribution company. Enbridge Gas Distribution markets natural gas to commercial, residential and resellers in Ontario , Quebec and New York State . Enbridge thus serves more than 2 million consumers.
Enbridge's pipelines allow the failed Keystone XL pipeline to be bypassed. Crude oil from the mining of the Athabasca tar sands is transported in large quantities from Enbridge to refineries in the east and south of the United States.
