TMPL Pooled Crude Quality Specification

Pooled crudes are subject to receipt specifications at Edmonton as outlined in TMPLs Service Standards. Delivered quality may vary from receipt quality as a result of normal pipeline transportation and terminal operations per Rule 5.2 as outlined in TMPLs Rules and Regulations. Service Standards, Rules and Regulations, and approved pool commodities can be found on the Tolls and Tariffs Page of the Trans Mountain website.
