Canadian Propane Export Terminals –West Coast.Summary of Operating and Proposed Propane Terminals on the West Coast.
As I mentioned earlier, the propane flow through optimization of Ripet is done. There may be additional tweaks but it is very unlikely that Ripet would reach 80k bbl/day without rail/port modifications. There is a proposal but that will take time to evolve and then completed.
