AltaGas Ltd. has spotlighted its Ridley Island Propane Export Terminal (RIPET) as a cornerstone of its growing export capabilities and midstream value chain. Located on Canada’s West Coast, RIPET is operated in partnership with Vopak, a global leader in tank storage. This collaboration marks a significant strategic alliance, combining AltaGas’s energy infrastructure expertise with Vopak’s global experience in terminal operations and safety.
The partnership has enabled the successful development and operation of Canada’s first LPG export terminal, positioning RIPET as a critical hub for supplying liquefied petroleum gas to Asian markets. Together, AltaGas and Vopak have enhanced North America’s access to global energy markets, delivering affordable and reliable energy across the Pacific.
Key to RIPET’s success is its connection to a strong railway network. This week, representatives from Canadian National Railway toured the facility to observe firsthand the role their infrastructure plays in linking domestic supply with international demand.
AltaGas emphasised the importance of these collaborative relationships—with Vopak and CN alike—in building resilient, efficient export solutions that drive long-term value across the energy sector.
