JFJV Kitimat
JGC Fluor (JFJV) - prime contractor of the LNG Canada plant construction project
In October 2018, LNG Canada made a final investment decision to build its liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facility in Kitimat, British Columbia, Canada. The project represents the largest energy investment in Canadian history.
The LNG export facility will liquefy surplus Canadian natural gas so it can be safely exported to help meet global energy demands. A joint venture between JGC Corporation and Fluor Corporation – JGC Fluor BC LNG JV – was selected by LNG Canada Development Inc. to be the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor for this proposed liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal. The joint venture was established to leverage JGC’s extensive experience of LNG projects worldwide, as well as Fluor’s expertise accumulated from its outstanding track record of completing mega-sized projects in North America.
The proposed LNG export facility will liquefy surplus Canadian natural gas so that it can be safely exported to help meet global energy demands. The facility will initially consist of two LNG processing units, referred to as trains, each with the capacity to produce at least 6.5 million tons per annum (mtpa) of LNG per train.
Community Notification: Flaring Activity
LNG Canada advises that a new flaring activity will occur starting July 11 as part of the start-up of our refrigerant production unit.
During this period, community members may notice intermittent flaring and black smoke. This is expected and represents normal, controlled conditions during the equipment’s start-up phase.
Flaring is a provincially regulated safety measure that ensures the controlled, efficient combustion of natural gas during specific operational phases. It is a critical part of safely operating a facility of this scale and is not expected to be routine during regular operations.

Happy Canada Day! We celebrate much more today as Canada joins the league of LNG Exporting Nations.
Congratulations to LNG Canada and to all who have worked so hard to bring this day to pass.
Today, LNG Canada successfully loaded a first cargo of liquefied natural gas that is now destined for global markets, marking the start of operations at Canada’s first large-scale LNG export facility.
