A floating LNG export facility on Canada's West Coast will move ahead, becoming the world's first indigenous majority-owned LNG project.

The Haisla Nation and Pembina Pipeline Corporation decided to move ahead with the Cedar LNG project, a floating LNG export facility on Canada ’s West Coast, and the world’s first indigenous majority-owned LNG project. Pembina and the Haisla Nation, on whose territory the project will be built, announced a positive Final Investment Decision FID on the project with a nameplate capacity of 3.3 million tons per year. Cedar LNG aims to deliver Canadian natural gas to the global markets.

“We have created a model for how sustainable energy development should be done, with Indigenous Nations as owners, balancing environmental interests with global demand for cleaner energy,” said Crystal Smith, Chief Councillor of the Haisla Nation. In March 2023, Cedar LNG became Canada’s first Indigenous majority-owned LNG facility to receive an Environmental Assessment Certificate from the British Columbia government and a positive Decision Statement from the federal government.
