Construction Material Background

• One elbow used in recent construction

did not meet TransCanada specifications

• Investigation expanded the focus to

specific components from one fitting

manufacturer used on specific projects

after 2010 with potential for similar

issues

• Rigorous investigation, including

extensive materials testing and

Engineering analysis is complete

Operational consequence is currently limited to availability of three facilities

27

• Specific in-service facilities are limited to not exceed historical maximum pressure and temperature – safe and reliable operation

• No expected impact to normal system operation or throughput

• Three facilities recently constructed are delayed or unavailable

• Meikle River D, Goodfish, and Leismer East compressor stations

• No impact to normal system operation or throughput

• Resolution expected by end of Q3 2017 (subject to NEB approvals)

• Meikle River D leave to open application submitted Mar 22, approved Apr 21

• Commissioning in progress – expected onstream May 2017

• Goodfish leave to open submission expected May 2017

• Single engineering assessment for all in service facilities to lift the pressure and temperature limitations – EA submission expected Jun 2017

• Includes Leismer East C/S

Upstream James River Operational Constraints

Multiple coincidental factors led to frequent FT service restriction

• Unusual and long duration constraints - all resolved or soon to be resolved

• Significant pipeline inspection and facility maintenance programs

• Consequential pipeline MOP derates

• A period of supply growth and distributional shift

• Capability Expectations

• Largely unconstrained by pipeline MOP derates

• Ongoing Pipeline Integrity Programs

• Optimized 2017 outage program

• 2018 outage program planning underway

• Capability addition through expansion

• USJR receipt flow and resulting FT service reliability?

Continuous Improvement Focus Areas

• Planning and Scheduling

• How can planning and scheduling be refined to maximize

throughput?

• Condition monitoring and preventative maintenance

• What risk factors which lead to unplanned outages can

be mitigated?

• Outage execution

• What outage work activities be complete without an

outage?

Strategies and opportunities to maximize operational capability are constantly under review
