May 8 (Reuters) - Canada's main oil-producing province Alberta on Saturday declared a provincial state of emergency due to wildfires, shutting in at least 185,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd), or about 2% of the country's output.
Canadian natural gas exports to the United States fell to 6.7 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) on Sunday, the lowest since April 2021, according to data provider Refinitiv.
Most of the reductions on Sunday were on pipes from Canada to the U.S. Midwest, including Enbridge Inc (ENB.TO), Pembina Pipeline Corp's (PPL.TO) Alliance pipe, TC Energy Corp's (TRP.TO) Great Lakes pipe, Northern Border pipe and its Gas Transmission Northwest pipe.
