North American LNG Sector Is Getting Crowded

March 21, 2023--Written by Daniel Graeber for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--A wave of new export facilities for liquefied natural gas (LNG) in North America helps solve some of the recent energy security issues, but if the criticism is valid, it does little to address economic concerns at home.

The provincial government of British Columbia opted to let the US$7.2 billion floating Ksi Lisims LNG facility enter the environmental review process. As planned, the facility would be able to process as much as 2 billion cubic feet of natural gas per day into super-cooled LNG, presumably for the Asian economies.
