Canada

IRVING, June 3, 2026 – JGC Fluor BC LNG II, a joint venture between Fluor Corporation and JGC Corporation, has received limited notice to proceed on the proposed Phase 2 expansion of the LNG Canada export facility in British Columbia, Canada, Fluor announced on Monday.

The notice enables companies to commence early planning and preparatory activities ahead of a potential FID on the proposed expansion, which would double LNG Canada’s production capacity. The same partners delivered Phase 1, which included two LNG trains, storage tanks, a rail yard, water treatment facilities, flare stacks and a marine terminal.

“Our long-standing partnership with LNG Canada is a point of pride for us, and we look forward to advancing the next phase of this world-class project to help connect Canadian natural gas to global markets,” said Pierre Bechelany, president of Fluor’s energy solutions business group.

Located in Kitimat on Canada’s western coast, LNG Canada currently has a production capacity of approximately 14 million tonnes per year of LNG and operates under a 40-year licence. LNG Canada is owned by Shell (40%), Petronas (25%), PetroChina (15%), Mitsubishi (15%) and KOGAS (5%).

Based in Irving, Texas, Fluor is an EPC and maintenance company serving the energy, infrastructure, mining, government and advanced technologies sectors. The company reported revenue of USD 15.5 billion in 2025.
