LNG Canada ships first cargo to Asia

Canada’s first-ever LNG export cargo has been shipped from the country’s Pacific Coast en route to Asia. This achievement marks the start of operations for LNG Canada, the country's first large-scale liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility.

Built in Kitimat, British Columbia, LNG Canada features two processing units. Combined, they reach a total capacity of 14 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) of LNG.

A phase 2 for LNG Canada is currently under planning. It would include the installation of two additional units, potentially bringing total capacity to 28mtpa.
