Norwegian company has plans for LNG export project in Quebec
- A Norwegian subsidiary, Marinvest Energy Canada, plans to build an LNG export project in Baie-Comeau, Quebec, announced by July 4, 2025.
- On June 6, 2025, Quebec Premier François Legault remarked that, in light of the ongoing trade dispute with the United States, public attitudes in Quebec have become more favorable toward fossil fuel initiatives, marking a shift from the 2021 rejection of an LNG project.
- The project involves floating offshore platforms, a liquefaction plant, and a pipeline linking to the Canadian Mainline, aiming to export LNG especially to Europe amidst U.S. tariff threats.
- Greg Cano, Marinvest's COO, affirmed a strong business case for global LNG exports, while Greenpeace raised concerns about environmental impact and possible federal exemptions from regulations.
- This development suggests Quebec's energy landscape may shift with revived LNG initiatives balancing economic interests and environmental scrutiny amid international trade pressures.
