The LNG Canada put a break in the liquefied natural gas project in Kitimat in 2016. It was made clear by the CEO Andy Calitz that they have not shelved the project and the project was only delayed.
There is good news on the multi-billion-dollar LNG project. Calitz told that the company is planning to carry on with the LNG project at the Globe Conference forum on Energy Transition. He said that the company will be soon talking about the financial matters with its main partners that also include Royal Dutch Shell.
There was huge skepticism about this large LNG project right from the announcement. The senior executives of Shell and Calitz have been showing great interest in moving forward with the project and carrying on with the LNG Canada project for quite some time now. They have said that they would be making a final investment decision about the project in 2018.

He said that the final investment documents for approving the LNG Canada project is being prepared and then it will be submitted to the stakeholders.
