With 100% of pipe in the ground, project now moves into clean-up
Coastal GasLink quietly marked a last spike moment earlier this month with a “golden weld” on Oct. 7 that marked the competition of the 670-kilometre long natural gas pipeline.
The final stage of mechanical completion will now begin before the pipeline is commissioned and natural gas starts flowing through the pipeline from Dawson Creek to Kitimat, where it will supply both the LNG Canada and Cedar LNG with natural gas.Last week, it was reported that the McLeod Like Indian Band’s Tse’khene energy hub would include a natural gas straddle plant on the Coastal GasLink pipeline.
The CGL pipeline has faced several setbacks and the estimated cost of completing the project more than doubled, from $6.6 billion in 2020 to $11.2 in 2022 and to $14.5 billion earlier this year. Sabina Dennis, whose trial starts today in Smithers, B.C., was among those charged with criminal contempt for violating a court injunction that CGL received to prevent protestors from trying to interfere with the pipeline’s construction.
