(TSX:KEY) (\"Keyera\") today announced plans to construct the North Wapiti Pipeline System (the \"Pipeline System\"), providing critical infrastructure and services to producers developing the Montney north of the Wapiti River. The Pipeline System extends the capture area of Keyera's recently approved Wapiti Gas Gathering and Processing Complex (the \"Wapiti Gas Plant\") and includes a 12-inch sour gas gathering pipeline, an 8-inch condensate and water pipeline, and a compressor station. \n\nThe Pipeline System is underpinned by a long-term, take-or-pay natural gas gathering and processing agreement with privately owned Pipestone Oil Corp.
