Winnipeg Products Pipeline

Following routine inspections conducted in 2024 which found riverbank erosion was causing stress on the Winnipeg Products Pipeline, Imperial made the proactive decision to carry out preventative maintenance. The maintenance was undertaken to ensure the integrity of the pipelines and continued protection of the community and environment.

Work began in mid-March and included replacing a section of the pipeline that runs under the Red River, south of Winnipeg. Work was completed in June 2024 after both pipelines were brought back into service.

Our Winnipeg Products Pipeline transports gasoline, diesel and jet fuel to supply customers in the greater Winnipeg region. Imperial and third-party customers ship on the line.

We worked closely with impacted neighbours, Indigenous communities, surrounding regions, the Manitoba government and regulators, and customers throughout this process to ensure they had the latest information on the status of the maintenance work.

Our priority was returning the pipeline to service on time and in the safest, most environmentally responsible way. We appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding as we undertook this important work.
