The Younger NGL Extraction Plant is the sole straddle plant located in British Columbia. A straddle plant “straddles” large natural gas pipelines and extracts natural gas liquids from natural gas before re-injecting the natural gas into the pipeline. Younger is located at Taylor, near Fort St. John in northeastern British Columbia. It straddles three main transmission systems owned by Duke Energy Gas Transmission, Williams Energy (Canada) Inc. and Alliance Pipeline. Provident owns 43 percent of the plant which is operated by Taylor NGL Ltd. Key attributes of the Younger NGL Extraction Plant include:

• 38,500 barrels per day (bbl/d) capacity, 16, 700 bbl/d of which is net to Provident. NGLs processed at Younger are transported to the Redwater facility in Fort Saskatchewan through the LGS system and Pembina Peace Pipeline.

• The Younger facility is a key supply hub for BC: Provident has secured long-term, dedicated supply from the McMahon and W. Stoddart facilities.
