Montney Formation

British Columbia is a new hot spot for LNG export development. The first phase of LNG Canada is up and running; Phase 2 is nearing FID. Two smaller LNG export projects are under construction; and a 12-MMtpa (~1.6 Bcf/d) proposal may be sanctioned soon. 

LNG Canada didn’t load its first cargo until June 2025, more than nine years after Sabine Pass LNG was up and running in Louisiana. But while the U.S. Gulf Coast had a big head start, Canada is finally firing on all cylinders, with plans to more than triple its LNG export capacity by the early 2030s.
