Imperial Oil Wharves
Coastal and foreign-going tanker vessels are loaded and discharged at Imperial Oil's wharves which are connected to its refinery by pipeline. A crude oil receptacle conveys the imported raw product from larger foreign-trading ships' holds to the on-shore refinery. Exported refined fuels, lubricants, and home heating oil are processed, then conveyed back through the system to smaller coastal tankers for distribution to markets in Canada and the United States.
