Keyera Completes Acquisition of Core Fort Saskatchewan Facilities

T.KEY

CALGARY, AB, Feb. 13, 2023 /CNW/ - Keyera Corp. (TSX: KEY) ("Keyera" or the "Corporation") today confirms the closing of the previously announced acquisition of a 21% working interest in the Keyera Fort Saskatchewan ("KFS") complex from Plains Midstream Canada, bringing its total ownership in KFS to 98%. Total cash consideration including adjustments was $366.5 million.

The transaction offers many benefits to Keyera including:

  • Meaningful synergies with Keyera's integrated platform
