François Poirier congratulates Nisga’a Nation on Ksi Lisims LNG and the Prince Rupert Gas Transmission Project being referred to the Major Projects Office.

This is a state-of-the-art project that is going to provide natural gas southern Mexico for the next forty years without causing any disruption to the marine environment,

The Project will include the construction of approximately 4 kilometres (km) of pipe 324 millimeters in diameter for transporting natural gas. It will parallel the existing Canadian Mainline, and will start at the Saint-Sébastien Meter Station near route 133 and end at a new proposed valve and receiver site in the municipality of Pike River, near Chemin Molleur.

The Project consists of a 206 kilometre (km), 42-inch pipeline, two compressor stations, and 14 meter stations. It will begin at a the northern point of the existing Saturn section of the Groundbirch Mainline at 14-21-80-20-W6M and terminate at the Blair Creek Receipt Meter Station located in Unit 30, Block K, Group 94-G-7.

NGTL GP is proposing to decommission 11 laterals or loops and one co-located meter station on the NGTL System as these assets are no longer required to meet customer demand.
