Shell started production at the first liquefaction train at its LNG Canada export terminal on June 22.

Moreover, the 174,000-cbm GasLog Glasgow, which is on charter by Shell, loaded the first cargo and departed the facility on July 1, marking Canada’s entry onto the map of LNG exporting nations.

LNG Canada is a joint venture between Shell, Petronas, PetroChina, Mitsubishi Corporation, and Kogas.

It is Canada’s first large LNG export facility.

One of the largest private investments in Canadian history, the plant will initially produce 14 million tonnes per annum (mtpa) LNG for export via two trains.

With a planned Phase 2, which includes two new trains, the capacity will rise to 28 mtpa.

LNG Canada recently also sought approval from the Canadian energy regulator to boost its annual export capacity by 6.4 percent.
