Estimates for Canadian pipeline volumes are derived from the Natural Gas Imports
and Exports and EIA estimates of dry natural gas imports.
|
|
EIA reduced the reported volume of gas imported by pipeline from Canada by the amount of natural gas liquids removed from the saturated natural gas carried by Alliance Pipeline. Alliance Pipeline moves saturated natural gas from the Canadian border at Sherwood, ND, to the Aux Sable processing plant in Illinois. EIA adjusted the Alliance import volumes to remove volumes of natural gas liquids reported by Alliance. The import volumes of dry natural gas are then comparable with other volumes of pipeline imports.

For the "Other" area the point of origin for volumes of imported LNG was unassigned in
the reports to the Office of Fossil Energy.
