2026 Turnaround: A catalyst for success
This year’s project will officially get underway in mid-April 2026 and is expected to run for up to 54 days. During this time, we will welcome an additional 1,600 skilled trades personnel to our facility. As a team, we will work together to perform preventive maintenance, renovations and upgrades as part of the multi-million-dollar project – ultimately allowing us to continue safe and reliable operations.
Investing in safety, investing in our community
The success of our Turnaround is ultimately tied to our safety performance.
Safety is the most important aspect of how we operate and how we conduct our business. It is our collective responsibility as workers, support staff and contractors, to keep our site and community safe. We’re committed to working closely with our people, partners and local community to ensure that safety remains our top priority.
