Overview
The Cedar Link Project will enable Coastal GasLink to deliver natural gas to Cedar LNG, a floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) facility in Kitimat, B.C., that brings together Haisla Nation and Pembina Pipeline Corporation to develop the Haisla Nation-led project.
The Cedar Link Project will consist of the Cedar Link Connector, LNG Link Meter Station, and Mount Bracey Compressor Station, which will be developed, constructed and operated by Coastal GasLink Pipeline Ltd., a TC Energy subsidiary. By leveraging the existing Coastal GasLink infrastructure to enable incremental additional capacity for Cedar LNG, we continue Coastal GasLink’s extraordinary legacy of creating lasting benefits.
Project details
The Cedar Link Project has all major permits and will include several components that will be developed, constructed and operated by Coastal GasLink, to enable delivery to Cedar LNG.
- The Mount Bracey Compressor Station: The compressor station, located near Prince George, B.C. will enable the transportation of additional natural gas to Cedar LNG.
- Cedar Link Connector: The connector will start inside the LNG Canada export facility, travel within the facility footprint, and end at a point just outside the facility wall for connection and delivery to Cedar LNG.
- LNG Link Meter Station: The meter station will be built in parallel with the connector, to preserve accurate and independent measurement of natural gas delivered to LNG Canada once Cedar Link goes into operation. The new meter station will be located within the LNG Canada export facility.
Working with Indigenous and local communities
Whether it’s engaging with community groups or supporting local initiatives, our goal is to build strong and vibrant communities where we operate.
As with Phase 1, Coastal GasLink is committed to engaging with Indigenous and local communities on local opportunities, where possible. As the scope of work for Cedar Link is significantly smaller than Phase 1, the project will require a smaller workforce, and job opportunities will be available where possible.
Coastal GasLink remains committed to providing benefits to communities in the long-term, through investments, sponsorships, and programs that go beyond our operations.
