LNG Canada is moving forward with its Phase 2 expansion project at its Kitimat, B.C., liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal. Multiple outlets report that the expansion is intended to increase production capacity substantially.

The project is described as doubling LNG Canada’s capacity to 28 million tonnes of LNG per year. One report also places the project in the broader context of Canada’s major-project review process, saying it was among five initial projects referred to Ottawa’s Major Projects Office last year.

While the sources align on the decision to proceed and the planned capacity increase, they focus on different aspects of the announcement. One outlet emphasizes the go-ahead for the specific Kitimat Phase 2 work, while another highlights the scale of the expansion. The National Observer adds background on how the project has been assessed and tracked through the federal major-project framework.
