Keyera Announces Sanctioning of KAPS Zone 4 and Provides Other Commercial Updates
"The sanctioning of KAPS Zone 4 marks another important milestone in the execution of our strategy to grow and extend our value chain," said Dean Setoguchi, President and CEO. "This project reflects strong customer demand for our fully integrated service offerings and our ability to connect to valuable end-markets. By enhancing connectivity and optionality, Zone 4 strengthens our competitive position and delivers greater value to our customers."
KAPS Zone 4 is an 85-kilometre extension of the existing KAPS pipeline, connecting Pipestone to Gordondale, Alberta. It will connect to NorthRiver Midstream's Northeast BC Connector project. Together, these systems offer Montney producers a fully integrated and cost-effective route from northeast British Columbia to Fort Saskatchewan area fractionation and Keyera's industry-leading condensate hub. The capital cost of KAPS Zone 4 is expected to be $220 million (net to Keyera), which includes investments in additional pumping capacity on KAPS Zones 1 to 3. The project is targeted to enter service in mid-2027.
The project is backed by long-term transportation agreements with several investment-grade Montney producers, averaging 11 years in duration and 75% take-or-pay commitments. The agreements include downstream services such as fractionation, storage, transportation, and marketing, further demonstrating the value of Keyera's integrated offering.
Keyera has secured over 75,000 barrels per day of new contracted volumes across KAPS Zones 1 through 4 in recent months, with substantially all volumes also committed to incremental downstream services.
Keyera's current and future fractionation capacity, which includes the Fort Saskatchewan Fractionation Unit II debottleneck and the Fort Saskatchewan Fractionation Unit III expansion project, is now substantially fully contracted, supporting strong utilization and returns across the system.
Investments in Zone 4 and fractionation expansions directly contribute to the growth of Keyera's long-term, fee-for-service cash flows, supporting continued sustainable dividend growth.
In response to growing volumes across Keyera's integrated system, Keyera has entered into an agreement with AltaGas to export an additional 12,500 barrels per day of natural gas liquids via AltaGas' west coast export facilities starting in 2028. This builds on the 12,500 barrels per day announced earlier this year. The agreement will further strengthen Keyera's ability to offer its customers more diversified market access for LPGs, including premium Asian markets, while providing AltaGas with long-term ratable export volumes and cash flows.

Investor Confidence Holds Steady in Canada's Multi-Suite Residential and Commercial Real Estate Markets in Q2 2025: Morguard
MISSISSAUGA, ON, Aug. 13, 2025 /CNW/ - Investor confidence in Canada's multi-suite residential rental properties remained strong in the second quarter with demand continuing to outpace supply. Industrial and office asset classes showed resiliency despite ongoing global trade tensions and economic uncertainty, according to Morguard's 2025 Economic Outlook and Market Fundamentals Second Quarter Update ("Morguard") (TSX: MRC). "Canada's real estate market continues to be supported by solid fundamentals that foster long-term optimism and growth," said Angela Sahi, President and Chief Operating Officer of Morguard. "Even amid market volatility, investor interest in high-quality industrial and office properties remains strong." Multi-Suite Residential Real Estate Multi-suite residential rental transaction volume rose in the second quarter after a slower start to the year. A total of $812.0 million in transaction volume was reported, marking a 39.4% increase quarter-over-quarter. Investor sentiment remained positive, driven by the asset class's healthy medium- to long-term fundamentals and its proven ability to perform during periods of economic softness. While rental demand is expected to moderate in the coming quarters, partly due to lower immigration and temporary worker targets and increased first-time homebuyer activity, asking rents are projected to climb through next year as newly constructed supply enters the market. Commercial Real Estate High-quality industrial opportunities, such as logistics and warehouse properties, remained highly attractive to investors. Approximately half of the industrial properties sold were purchased by users, many of whom opted to buy space instead of paying elevated lease rates. Private capital groups also remained active by targeting acquisition opportunities in a less competitive market. The Canadian office leasing market remained relatively stable in the second quarter. Trophy assets remained popular among tenants seeking highly-amenitized spaces in core locations. Office rents were also relatively stable with modest upward pressure reported for space in trophy buildings. Retail investment activity moderated in the second quarter following a strong start to the year. Several large transactions were completed earlier in 2025, and sales of retail properties have remained surprisingly brisk over the past year. Economic Factors Canada's economy showed signs of cooling in the second quarter, following a stronger-than-expected performance earlier in 2025. Trade disruptions and tariff pressures weighed on job creation, consumer spending, and business investment. Despite these headwinds, core inflation remained largely under control. Looking ahead, the Bank of Canada will face the challenge of balancing support for economic growth with its mandate to maintain price stability. "While global economic conditions continue to evolve, the Canadian real estate market is showing encouraging signs of stability," said Keith Reading, Senior Director, Research at Morguard. "With balanced fundamentals and continued investor interest in core sectors, the outlook for the second half of 2025 remains positive." Released today by Morguard, the 2025 Canadian Economic Outlook and Market Fundamentals Second Quarter Update provides a comprehensive breakdown of the real estate investment trends and outlook to watch in Canada. The full report is available at Investor interest in multi-suite residential rental assets remained strong, supported by healthy fundamentals. Office leasing market conditions stabilized, with demand focused on high-quality and amenity-rich buildings. Industrial availability rose with the delivery of new supply while user and investor interest in space for logistics remained firm. The Bank of Canada will need to strike a balance between supporting economic growth and maintaining inflation stability amid ongoing trade uncertainty.
