After seven and a half months working in challenging terrain, topography and temperatures spanning -40°C to 30°C, the project was completed ahead of schedule, under budget and in compliance with all regulatory requirements. Execution of the pipeline reflected ATCO’s core values, meeting or exceeding stringent commitments to safety, the environment, quality, code compliance and Indigenous communities. This project demonstrated ATCO’s ability to manage the full depth and breadth of a complex project that involved bringing together the best interests of multiple stakeholders. Beyond this, ATCO is also proud of the local impact made: PKTL employed more than 600 people, generated ~$10M in opportunity to businesses in the area and crews raised over $20,000 for local charities in need.
