Canadian officials spoke with senior U.S. officials about a proposed revival of part of the cancelled Keystone XL oil pipeline during a meeting in Houston this week, according to Natural Resources Minister Tim Hodgson.
The project, proposed by Calgary-based pipeline company South Bow and its U.S. partner Bridger Pipeline, could increase oil exports to the United States by more than 12 percent, Hodgson said in a March 23 interview at the CERAWeek annual energy conference held this week in Houston, Texas.
