LNG export terminal near Squamish, BC, with capacity of 2.1 million tonnes a year and liquefaction run on electricity, owned 70% by Pacific Energy (Singapore) and 30% by Enbridge. The company reported it more than 65% complete in May 2026, with completion expected in 2027. BP has contracted all of its output for 15 years on a free-on-board basis, so BP decides where the cargoes go.
