CALGARY, Alberta/ WINNIPEG, Manitoba - A Minnesota court ruled on Monday that Enbridge Inc’s environmental impact statement for replacement of its Line 3 oil pipeline is inadequate, raising the possibility of further delays.

It is the furthest advanced of three proposed pipeline expansions - along with the Canadian government-owned Trans Mountain and TC Energy Corp’s Keystone XL - that would ease Alberta’s oil glut. All three have faced long delays. It is disappointed in the ruling, since the impact statement was based on the most extensive environment study of a pipeline in Minnesota’s history, the Calgary, Alberta-based company said.

In March, Enbridge said Line 3 would be delayed until the second half of 2020 because of permitting delays in Minnesota, and the prospect of further holdups is another blow to the beleaguered Canadian energy industry.
