US EditionNorwegian company has plans for LNG export project in Quebec
- A Norwegian company, Marinvest Energy AS, plans to build an LNG export facility in Baie-Comeau, Quebec, to ship liquefied natural gas globally, especially to Europe.
- The project follows the scrapped 2021 LNG Quebec plan, as Premier Francois Legault's government reconsiders LNG due to U.S. tariff threats and changing public openness amid trade tensions.
- The proposal includes floating offshore platforms, a liquefaction plant, and a connecting pipeline to the TRP-T Canadian Mainline, with company representatives recently meeting Quebec officials.
- Greg Cano, Marinvest's COO, stated in writing there is a “strong business case” for the project, while Greenpeace raised concerns over emissions and St. Lawrence beluga impacts.
- The project could gain federal subsidies, but Greenpeace warns it might be exempted from environmental reviews if deemed nationally significant, highlighting ongoing regulatory and environmental debates.
