What Keyera does

Canadian midstream energy company gathering and processing natural gas, and fractionating/storing natural gas liquids in Alberta.

Most income is fees for processing gas and handling liquids, largely under long-term contracts, which makes it steadier than the producers it serves. A separate marketing arm buys and sells propane, butane and iso-octane, a gasoline-blending component, and that part moves with commodity prices and storage spreads. Facilities cluster in Alberta.

In one line: A smaller Canadian peer to Targa Resources.
