Marketing

Keyera’s marketing activities are a natural extension of our other business lines.

Building on our substantial interests in natural gas gathering systems, processing facilities, fractionation, storage and transportation assets, we are ideally positioned to provide a strategic link between producers and customers in the growing North American natural gas products commodity business.

We utilize our infrastructure to access the highest value markets for specification products such as propane, butane, condensate and iso-octane, as well as NGL mix, crude oil and sulphur.

We are focused on providing value for our customers across Canada and the U.S. Part of our approach stems from our effective risk management program, which protects margins and inventory values from significant volatility in commodity prices.

Logistics expertise

With well-trained, experienced and professional employees, we provide a wide range of services. We coordinate fractionation, storage, and transportation via pipeline, truck and rail, to access markets throughout North America.

Geographic and customer diversity

We purchase supply from a multitude of producers, and sell specification products to industrial customers and retailers across North America.

Inventory management

The flexibility to manage our physical inventory, combined with a talented team of professionals who manage our credit and risk profile, has generated an impressive track record of results in our Marketing business. Our Marketing business earns a margin through the purchase and subsequent sale of NGLs in markets across North America. Most of the products we market are purchased and sold in the same month, minimizing our exposure to price fluctuations. However, we do store NGLs to meet seasonal demand requirements. To minimize the risk associated with falling product prices while the product is in inventory, we have adopted a disciplined approach to price risk management.
