Vector Pipeline

Vector Pipeline

Vector Pipeline L.P. is a natural gas pipeline which transports approximately convert|1|Gcuft|m3 per day of natural gas from Joliet, Illinois, in the Chicago area, to parts of Indiana and Michigan and into Ontario, Canada. The pipeline is a key link in the supply and transportation of economical natural gas from the United States and Western Canada to growing markets in the Midwest, eastern Canada and the northeastern United States. The pipeline provides natural gas supply to power generation plants, natural gas distribution companies, and natural gas storage facilities. The pipeline also has interconnections with several other natural gas pipelines along its route.

Vector Pipeline L.P. is a joint venture between Calgary-based Enbridge Inc. (TSX|ENB NYSE|ENB) and Detroit-based DTE Energy Company(nyse|DTE). Vector Pipeline filed applications with the U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the Canadian National Energy Board in late 1997. Construction of the pipeline took place during 2000 and Vector began operations Dec. 1, 2000. Its FERC code is 175. [http://www.ferc.gov/industries/gas/gen-info/pipecode.asp]
