Imperial Oil - Dartmouth Refinery

For nearly a century, millions of Canadians have relied on Imperial Oil’s Dartmouth refinery to heat homes, maintain roads, and fuel cars, ships, and airplanes. It’s our job to keep it running.

Through more than 1,800 projects and a 40-year relationship, Stantec has worked to ensure that Atlantic Canada’s first refinery operated at peak performance.

We have helped Imperial Oil modernize and improve the refinery by revamping existing units, designing for expansion, supporting continuous improvement and maintenance, and ensuring that environmental standards are met.

Our commitment to Imperial Oil and their trust of our team meant that 20 of our employees were continuously working onsite alongside Imperial Oil’s team. Our safety professionals, metals inspectors, industrial hygienists, environmental specialists, project and construction managers, and engineering team brought a unique understanding and perspective to this former 88,000 barrel per day facility.

In 2012, Imperial Oil converted the refinery into a terminal operation. Stantec completed the front end engineering design (FEED) and detailed design for the conversion of the facility, and we are currently providing ongoing engineering services in support of this and other Imperial Oil/Canada Fuels Operations (CFO) terminals across Canada. We’re also providing ongoing onstream and turnaround engineering support for the Imperial Oil Strathcona Refinery in Edmonton Alberta
