 Project Description
The proposed LNG Canada facility will be located on 350 ha to 400 ha in the industrial area of Kitimat, in British Columbia, incorporating the former Methanex site.

• a marine terminal, with the capacity to hold two LNG carriers of between 140 000 m³ and 265 000 m³;
• a tugboat dock;
• four processing units or trains;
• LNG storage tanks and LNG loading lines that connect the storage tanks to the wharf;
• roads required primarily during construction and for maintenance;
• a material offloading facility, primarily for use during construction; and
• supporting infrastructure and facilities that include power and water supply, as well as handling and waste collection and treatment.

Value
The project has been estimated by the Bank of Nova Scotia at $14.4-billion or more.
