Published on: 

Cedar LNG signs an MoU with ARC Resources.

Cedar LNG is receiving its Environmental Assessment Certificate from the British Columbia Environmental Assessment Office and signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with ARC Resources for a long-term liquefaction services agreement.

The project is a proposed floating LNG facility located on Haisla Nation-owned land in Kitimat, B.C. with the capacity to export three million tonnes per year of LNG.

The facility is powered with renewable electricity from BC Hydro. In addition, the choice of site location allows the project to leverage existing LNG infrastructure.
