Heartland Regional Sulphur Forming and Handling Terminal
Kinder Morgan Energy Partners (“KMP”), of which KMCT is a subsidiary, is a US$20 billion enterprise that transports more than 600 million barrels of petroleum and chemical products yearly, as well as handles over 90 million tonnes of sulphur, petcoke, and other dry-bulk materials. KMP is the largest independent terminal operator in North America with over 150 terminal locations and provides KMCT with extensive industry expertise
The proposed KMCT Regional Sulphur Forming and Handling Terminal will be developed to accommodate the various levels of sulphur production.
A preliminarydesign has been developed for the initial Heartland industrial production requirement in 2010 with phased expansions to accommodate the anticipated production increases identified through to 2021
KMCT’s Heartland site is ideally situated to become a regional sulphur solution because it is:
• adjacent to industrial neighbours reducing additional pipeline, rail and truck movements in and out of the area, and
• away from major residential communities reducing land-use conflicts and environmental and visual concerns.
