+++ Details
- NGTL gathers natural gas for use within the province of Alberta. It is also known as the Alberta System Gas Pipeline
- It delivers the gas to provincial boundary points for connection with the Company's Transcanada Canadian Mainline Gas Pipeline and Foothills System Gas Pipeline and with the natural gas pipelines of other companies
- It is one of the largest systems in North America and gathers 66 per cent of the natural gas produced in Western Canada.

- The pipeline will transport natural gas sourced through the NGTL System to the inlet of CVX/APA's proposed [[[Pacific Trail Gas Pipelines]]] (PTP) that will terminate at the Kitimat LNG Terminal
- **North Montney Mainline Project**
- The Project includes the construction and operation of new facilities and a 301 km sweet natural gas pipeline, 1066.8mm (42-inches) in diameter, connecting NGTL’s Groundbirch Mainline to the North Montney area in northeastern British Columbia. It would also connect to the proposed Prince Rupert Gas Transmission Pipeline and then to a future liquid natural gas plant on the west coast
