Industry News
originates in Hardisty, Alberta, Canada.
Phase 1 of the Keystone pipeline from
Hardisty to Steele City, Neb., and on to
Patoka, Ill., was completed in June 2010.
Phase 2 of the Keystone pipeline, which
extended the pipeline from Steele City to
Cushing, was completed in February 2011.
“With added flows into Cushing from
the north and west, and limited pipeline
capacity to move crude from Cushing
to Gulf Coast refineries, West Texas
Intermediate (WTI) crude oil has traded
at a substantial discount to crudes such
as Louisiana Light Sweet and Brent,”
EIA reported. Until mid-2012, only the
96,000-bbl/d ExxonMobil Pegasus pipe-
line between Patoka, Ill., and Nederland,
Texas, pipeline delivered crude oil
from the Midwest to the Gulf Coast.
In May 2012, the 150,000-bbl/d Seaway
pipeline, which also shipped crude north
to Cushing from the Gulf Coast, was
reversed in order to move crude oil to the
higher-priced Gulf Coast market. Seaway
capacity was expanded by an additional
250,000 bbl/d in early 2013.
In sum, over the past three years,
815,000 bbl/d of new pipeline capacity
delivering crude oil to Cushing was
added. Over the same period, only
400,000 bbl/d of new pipeline take-away
capacity was added.
OPOWER, HONEYWELL PARTNER
FOR HOME ENERGY MANAGEMENT
Honeywell and Opower recently
announced an integrated energy man-
agement platform that brings together
Honeywell’s Wi-Fi thermostat, Akuacom’s
utility management software for demand
response, and Opower’s cloud-based app.
The combination is meant to drive greater
participation in demand response and
efficiency programs, the latter of which
have mostly been Opower’s focus in the
past. Pacific Gas & Electric is currently
testing the platform for energy efficiency
with about 500 customers. Four other
utilities are also running pilots.
“Program participation can’t be
a one-way proposition,” said Jeremy
Eaton, vice president and general man-
ager of Honeywell Smart Grid Solutions.
“To maximize enrollment, utilities must
provide real, tangible benefits to cus-
tomers.” On the efficiency side, the app
begins by asking customers some basic
questions to help set up their smart ther-
mostat correctly. Just that move can save
up to 20 percent on air conditioning and
up to 15 percent on heating, according
to Opower.
