The LNG Canada Project recently submitted an application to the BC Energy Regulator to seek a permit for the discharge of air emissions from Phase 1 of the LNG Canada liquefied natural gas facility (Phase 1 is based on two liquefication trains operating). The major point sources of air emissions include the acid gas incinerators, gas turbines (via the waste heat recovery units) and the flare system.

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.
