Correct, Sir! And it was rumored the oil could even be purchased from a friendly Northern neighboring country!

There is a considerable quantity already flowing through the Canada-US pipeline which delivers to a distribution-point in Oklahoma, thereafter piped to South Texass refineries. The Keystone XL portion would have completed
a section from Alberta through to Baker, MT, where it would have been mixed with Bakken Formation shale oil, and the resulting higher API gravity oil pumped down to refineries near the Southern coast.

A problem is the Canadian oil API gravity is very low, (8 > 14 < 20 API gravity) and more suitable for refining into Plastics than fuel (gasoline); although some might be refined to Number 2 Diesel. [unusable for road-fuel].

Heck, now that gasoline is more expensive than designer bottled-waters, we can just stay home and drink OH2!

YOUR COMMENT IS TRULY DERANGED! Before you run your uninformed mouth and call someone a liar, you need to actually know what the heck you are talking about!

There is, to the best of my knowledge and from public records not one major point I made that is untruthful or not backed by factual data.

My statements were (in italics):
1. “ Correct, Sir! And it was rumored the oil could even be purchased from a friendly Northern neighboring country! “
>This is correct>. The oil WAS going to be purchased from Canada. They are still located to the North of the conterminous united states. They ARE still friendly (for the most part).

2. “ There is a considerable quantity already flowing through the Canada-US pipeline which delivers to a distribution-point in Oklahoma, thereafter piped to South Texass refineries. “
>This is correct>. Oil is being delivered by the Keystone pipeline.

SOURCE: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keystone_Pipeline.

“TransCanada Keystone Pipeline GP Ltd, abbreviated here as Keystone, operates four phases of the project. In 2013, the first two phases had the capacity to deliver up to 590,000 barrels (94,000 m3) per day of oil into the Midwest refineries. Phase III has capacity to deliver up to 700,000 barrels (110,000 m3) per day to the Texas refineries.”

Keystone-Cushing Project (Phase 2). From Steele City, Nebraska to Cushing, Oklahoma. Status: COMPLETE. IN OPERATION. Construction started 2010. Commissioned: February 2011. Length: 468 km (291 mi). Diameter: 36 in (914 mm). No. of pumping stations: 4.

Cushing Marketlink Project (Phase 3a). From: Cushing, Oklahoma. Passes through Liberty County, Texas to: Nederland, Texas. Status: COMPLETE. IN OPERATION. Construction started: Summer 2012. Commissioned: January 2014. Length: 784 km (487 mi). Maximum discharge: 0.7 million barrels per day. Diameter: 36 in (914 mm).

Houston Lateral Project (Phase 3b). From Liberty County, Texas to Houston, Texas. Status: COMPLETE. IN OPERATION. Construction started: 2013. Commissioned: 2016, online 2017. Length: 76 km (47 mi).”

The oil IS more suitable for refining into plastics and similar products due to the higher degree of polymerization and Bitumin content. SOURCE: http://refineryreport.org/tar-sands.php

The xl. Has been mothballed there is no oil going through it get educated

Keystone XL Pipeline Project Called Off For Good

The Dirty Fight Over Canadian Tar Sands Oil
Dredging up oil from under Canada’s boreal forest and piping it through the United States is a lose-lose proposition.

Do you want me to keep proving your clueless

Wyantry Loc: SW Colorado

You are obviously incapable of either reading or comprehension or both!

And the only thing you are “proving” is your own ignorance.

Note, the PAST TENSE “would have”? That indicates it was NOT DONE!

And right next to this is the information:
Keystone XL Pipeline portion was PROPOSED ONLY — Cancelled by Biden.
What part of this do you not understand?

YES, the XL portion WAS cancelled. The rest of the pipeline is currently delivering oil.

My DIRECT QUOTE is:
“3. “The Keystone XL portion would have completed a section from Alberta through to Baker, MT, where it would have been mixed with Bakken Formation shale oil, and the resulting higher API gravity oil pumped down to refineries near the Southern coast.”
>This is correct>. Keystone XL Pipeline PROPOSED ONLY — Cancelled by Biden (Phase 4). From: Hardisty, Alberta. Through: Baker, Montana to Steele City, Nebraska. Status: CANCELLED. Length: 1,897 km (1,179 mi). Diameter: 36 in (914 mm). SOURCE. Link as above r.e. Pipeline.”

Sheet, dude, Learn how to read! WTF!

dirtpusher Loc: tulsa oklahoma

Yup you sure he'll should..

Hey dude xl is kinda you past tense

Wyantry Loc: SW Colorado

You have managed to convince everyone that you cannot read. Or understand english. Or spell.

My entire point is the Phase 4 section of the keystone pipeline (the “XL” portion) is DEAD, DEAD, DEAD!

That is one thing we agree on.

The other sections (phases 1 through 3) are currently delivering oil.

This conversation is too funny! I check into Hedgehog every once in a while just to see what's happening. I see that the Dirtman is still fouling up the spark plugs that run his six brain cells. It's like arguing with a doorknob.

Some people will go through great lengths to prove the dipstick in chief competent.
One argument I saw is the oil companies are gouging to make him look bad. Some people need to back away from the num num juice

Number 2 diesel is used for road fuel (assuming that means fuel for vehicles that drive on the road) all the time.
