Company proposes pipeline

BISMARCK — A Texas company is proposing a pipeline that could transport up to 75,000 barrels of crude a day from North Dakota’s booming oil patch to U.S. supply hubs in Oklahoma and Illinois. Plains All American Pipeline LP of Houston said the 103-mile Bakken North Pipeline would run from North Dakota’s northwest corner through northeast Montana and to the U.S.-Canadian border. In Canada, it would link to an existing pipeline system capable of carrying crude to Oklahoma and Illinois.
