LNG Canada expansion gets go-ahead, as Carney set to highlight 'historic investment' in Canadian energy
The multibillion-dollar LNG Canada Phase 2 expansion in Kitimat, B.C., is going forward, Shell Energy Canada says, in a move that could double exports of liquefied natural gas from the northern coastal facility to overseas markets.
VANCOUVER - LNG Canada has announced plans to proceed with the Phase 2 expansion of its liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal in Kitimat, British Columbia. This expansion will more than double the company's capacity to 28 million tonnes annually. The project, one of five initially referred to Ottawa's Major Projects Office, aims to create thousands of jobs and reinforce Canada's position as a dependable energy partner.
The first phase of the project commenced shipping LNG last year. LNG Canada is a collaborative effort between Shell, Malaysia’s Petronas, PetroChina, Japan’s Mitsubishi Corp., and South Korea’s KOGAS.
