Pipeline Incidents: Alberta vs Canada

Pipeline incidents reported to the Canada Energy Regulator each calendar year, in Alberta and in all of Canada, 2008 to 2025. Alberta had 70 in 2012, its highest year, and 27 in each of 2024 and 2025; Canada had 173 in 2017 and 68 in 2025. Counted by the date the incident was reported. The CER regulates only pipelines that cross a provincial or national border, so the many pipelines regulated by the Alberta Energy Regulator are not in these counts.
