Our current operations are all within the North Montney basin in northeast British Columbia. With a dominant land position in that resource-rich area, we are one of the largest natural gas resource owners in Canada. Together with our joint venture partners, we own more than 800,000 gross acres of mineral rights with 53 trillion cubic feet of reserves and contingent resources.
As the operator of a large joint venture in the North Montney, we are focused on developing the resource safely and responsibly.
The company’s latest LNG acquisition is a 25% interest in LNG Canada, which is located near Kitimat, British Columbia.
Construction has started on the project, which will include the design, construction and operation of a gas liquefaction plant and facilities for the storage and export of LNG, including marine facilities. The plant will initially consist of two LNG processing units, referred to as trains, with an option to expand the project in the future to four trains. Once it’s operational, we will be supplying the plant with 500 million cubic feet of gas a day. LNG Canada expects to ship first cargo by the middle of 2025.
