Santa Fe Pacific Joins TransCanada Venture

Santa Fe Pacific Pipeline Partners L.P. said it is joining TransCanada Pipelines Ltd. in an $8.5-million venture to construct and operate a transmix processing facility at Santa Fe’s Colton terminal. The facility, which is expected to start operating in early 1998, will convert transmix into finished petroleum products.

Transmix is the mixture of gasoline and distillate products that occurs as a result of pipeline and terminal operations.
