Background

In April 2020, Cryopeak LNG Solutions started construction of a new liquefied natural gas (LNG) production facility in Fort Nelson, British Columbia, Canada. The new facility is expected to produce up to 90,000 gallons of LNG per day. It will be the closest LNG production point to northern Canada. It is the first fully funded and permitted facility in the Fort Nelson area and has been designed to incorporate a new truck loading system that optimises the loading of Cryopeak’s fleet of LNG Super-B tankers. The installation requirements at the site will be very minimal as the plant is designed to be modular. Cryopeak has contracted CryoSys to provide the liquefaction equipment to produce the LNG. The equipment is expected to be delivered this year.

In Jun 2021, Cyropeak LNG Solutions announced that the LNG facility was operational with a capacity of 27,000 gallons per day (gal/day). The facility can be scaled up to 100,000 gal/day under its current permits.
