Keystone’s third major pressure restriction since 2019
Wood Mackenzie’s latest Pipeline Intelligence Report breaks down the implications of this event across operations, regulation, and market dynamics.
On April 8, 2025, a crude oil spill near Fort Ransom, North Dakota, triggered a regulatory response on TC Energy’s Keystone pipeline system. This incident—the third major disruption since 2019—has once again raised concerns around the pipeline’s reliability and its critical role in moving Western Canadian crude to U.S. markets.
