Canadian player EnCana said pipelines in British Columbia damaged in separate bombings earlier this month have been repaired and shipments on them have resumed.
A 12-inch pipe able to send 60 million cubic feet of gas a day, and an 8-inch line, moving 40 million a day, returned to service over the past few days after testing, Alan Boras, a spokesman for the Calgary-based company said. Investigators from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police continue to probe the explosions on the lines, which carry sour natural gas. The explosions happened near Dawson Creek, British Columbia, about 890 kilometres northwest of Calgary. The pipelines are in a remote region that is difficult to monitor.
